If we'd known ten years ago today would be ten years from now
Would we spend tomorrow's yesterdays and make it last somehow
Or lead the cheers in someone else's game and never learn to play

If we had an hourglass to watch each one go by
Or a bell to mark each one to pass, we'd see just how they fly
Would we escalate the value to be worth its weight in gold
Or would we never know the fortunes that we had till we grow old
And do we just keep killin' time until there's no time to kill
No time to kill, even I've said it, probably always will
But I can look ahead and see that time ain't standin' still
No time to kill but time to change the kind of hurry I've been in
Quit this work and worry lookin' back at where I've been
If you don't look ahead nobody will, there's no time to kill
No time to kill, even I've said it, probably always will
But I can look ahead and see that time ain't standin' still

Like the Erain D D A (repeat 6X on CD)
For the Intro, the 1st Verse, and the Ending I like to do a simple
arpeggio picking pattern on the four low strings. It's not exactly
the same, but it works.
Any corrections are welcome, but I'm not sure how to go about fixing
them in the archives. If anyone can clue me in &/or fix the errors
I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
