Time in a Bottle
Jim Croce
Intro: [Dm] [F+] [F] [G] [Gm] [Gm6] [A] [A7]....
If [Dm] I could save [F+] time in a [F] bottle [G]
The [Gm] first thing that [Gm6] I'd like to [A] do [A7]
Is to [Dm] save every [F+] day
Till e[F]ternity [Gm7] passes a[Dm]way
Just to [Gm] spend them with [A] you [A7]
If [Dm] I could make [F+] days last for[F]ever [G]
If [Gm] words could make [Gm6] wishes come [A] true [A7]
I'd [Dm] save every [F+] day
Like a [F] treasure and [Gm7] then a[Dm]gain
I would [Gm] spend them with [A] you [A7]
But there [D*] never seems to [Dmaj7] be enough time
To [D6] do the things you [D] want to do
Once you [G] find them [Gmaj7] [Em7] [A]
I've [D*] looked around e[Dmaj7]nough to know
That [D6] you're the one I [D] want to go
Through [G] time with [Gmaj7] [Em7] [A]
[Dm] [F+] [F] [G] [Gm] [Gm6] [A] [A7]....
If [Dm] I had a [F+] box just for [F] wishes [G]
And [Gm] dreams that had [Gm6] never come [A] true [A7]
The [Dm] box would be [F+] empty
Ex[F]cept for the [Gm7] memory of [Dm] how
They were [Gm] answered by [A] you [A7]
But there [D*] never seems to [Dmaj7] be enough time
To [D6] do the things you [D] want to do
Once you [G] find them [Gmaj7] [Em7] [A]
I've [D*] looked around e[Dmaj7]nough to know
That [D6] you're the one I [D] want to go
Through [G] time with [Gmaj7] [Em7] [A]
