Am           Em                Am                   Em
  Yes, star crossed in pleasure the stream flows on by
Am               Em                  Am            Em
  Yes, as we're sated in leisure, we watch it fly, yes

Chorus:
        Dm            Am              F             C
   And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me
        Am            Em              C             G
   And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me

Time can tear down a building or destroy a woman's face
Hours are like diamonds, don't let them waste

Chorus:
   Time waits for no one, no favors has he
   Time waits for no one, and he won't wait for me

Men, they build towers to their passing yes
To their fame everlasting
Here he comes chopping and reaping
Hear him laugh at their cheating

Chorus:
   And time waits for no man, and it won't wait for me
   Yes, time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me

Drink in your summer, gather your corn
The dreams of the night time will vanish by dawn

Chorus:
   And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me
   And time waits for no one, and it won't wait for me

   No, no, no, not for me...
