Long black limousine, [Em]
shiniest car I've ever seen
The [A] backseat is nice and clean, [Em] she rides as quiet as a [F#] dream
[B] Someone dug a hole [A] six long [Em] feet in the ground
[B] I said goodbye to you, [E] yet I threw my roses down
[B] Ain't nothing left at all [A] in the end [E] of the crowd
[A] With me riding in this car [B] and you flying through the [A] clouds
I've had some time [Em] to think about, [A] and watch the sun [Em] sink like a stone
[A] I've had some time [B] to think [C#m] about you, [B] all along, [Em] right on
One day I took your tiny hand, put your finger in the wedding band
[A] Daddy gave a piece of land,
[Em] made ourselves the best of [E] plans
[Em]
[B] Forty years go by [A] with someone laying [Em] in your [B] bed
Forty years of things you [E] say you wish you'd [B] never said
How hard would it have been to [A] say some kind of [Em] words instead
[A] I wonder as I stare up [B] at the sky, you're turning [A] red
I've had some time to [Em] think about,
[A] and watch the sun sink [Em] like a stone
[E]
I've had some time to think [C#m] about you, [A] all along, [Em] right on
[E] [Em] [A] It lies searching [Em] down the driveway, [A] the house as dark as [B] it can be
[A] I go inside and [C#m] all is silent, and it [B] seems as empty as the inside of me
[A] I've had some time to [Em] think about, [E] and [A] watch the sun sink [Em] like a stone
