[F#] Time is gonna [E] take so much away, [D] but there's a way that time can [E] offer you a trade.
[D] Time is gonna [E] take so much away, but there's a way that time can offer you a trade.
[A] You gotta do something that you [E] can get nicer at.
[A] You gotta do something that [E] you can get wiser at.
[A] You better do something that you [E] can get better at.
Cause that's the only thing that time will leave you with.
Cause time is gonna take so much away, [D] but there's a way that time can [E] offer you a trade.
[A] It might be cabaret, [E] it could be poetry.
It might be trying to make a [E] new happy family.
[A] It could be violin [E] repair or chemistry.
[D] But if it's something that takes lots [E] of time, that's good.
[D] Cause time is gonna take [E] so much away, but there's a way that time can offer you a trade.
[D] Because your looks are gonna [E] leave you, [D] and your city's gonna [E] change too.
[D] And your shoes are gonna wear [E] through.
Yeah, time is gonna take so much away, but there's a way that you can offer time a trade.
You [A] gotta do something that you can [E] get smarter at.
You [A] gotta do something you might just [E] be a starter at.
You [A] better do something that you can [E] get better at.
Cause that's the thing that time will leave you with.
[D] [E]
[D] [E]
And [A] maybe that's why they call a [E] trade a trade.
Like [Am] when they say that you should go and [E] learn a trade.
The thing you do don't have to be to learn a trade.
Just get something back from time for all it takes away.
It [A] could be many things, [E] it could be anything.
It [A] could be expertise in Middle Eastern traveling.
Something to slowly sew to balance [E] life's unraveling.
You have no choice, you have to pay time's price.
But [D] you can use the price to buy you [E] something nice.
[D] Something you can only buy with [E] lots of time.
So when you're old you blow some whippersnappers' minds.
[A] It might be researching a book [E] that takes you seven years.
[A] A book that helps to make the path [E] we take to freedom clear.
[A] And when you're done you see it [E] started with a good idea.
One good idea could cost you thousands of your days.
But it's just time that you'd be spending anyway.
[D] You have no choice, you have to pay [E] time's price.
[D] But you can use the price to buy [E] you something nice.
So I've decided recently to try to trade more decently.
