[Em] [D]
[G] [E] It all started when I kissed you.
You smiled because you knew
[D] There was something set in motion
That [A] only currents had.
[E] You led me to an empty bench
Inside a public park.
[D] You made me wait, watch my [A] watch
And watch the sky go dark.
[Em] I looked around and got nervous.
I heard a crying crow
[D] In a tiny circle rolled down [A] on me And said,
You [E] pointed at that penny
And it pointed back at you.
[D] Our great old master Tather [A] told yours truly what to do.
[Em] He said, we've all got money.
We've all got time.
[D] Let's sell the house, sell the car, [A] sell the deed.
Offer money.
[E] Maybe the rock of ages
Is just another stone.

Leave this living world alone.

[E] I grabbed your hand in a hurry.
Knew we didn't have much time.
[D] We left the trail and ran [A] like hell
To make it out alive.
[Em] We scurried under bushes
Like a few miles from a snake.
[D] I felt a tug upon my shirt sleeve
[A] And threw it back under the gate.
[E] He said, can you spare a nickel, son?
I'm down to my last tooth.
[D] I said that I was done with you.
[A] So a dollar would have to do.
[E] But when first I clutched my wallet
Then I realized [Em] my mistake.
[D] Our great old master Tather's big [A] dream
Never gonna shake.
[E] I [Em] said, I'll see you
On this night of mine.
[D] He saw your gods and prophets
[A] Never reached the welfare [E] line.
Maybe the rock of ages
Is just another stone.

And pulled it over your [Em] ass.
He asked me where to, mister.
Up the 6th and up the 3rd.
[D] I looked at you, you [A] looked at me.
And then a [E] sneaky bird.
There was silence in the city
As we passed under the moon.
[D] That taxi man started whispering [A] some old [F#m] anthem.
[E] He turned around and faced us.
He'd been lights of [G] Broadway.
[D] That tall man in the top [A] hat said,
There's something I've got [D] to say.

I'm sorry.
