(Verse 1)
We were [C]singing
And [F]folks were [C]dancing
The [F]good times always [C]flow, [F]before and after [C]show
There was no way of [G]knowing
[F]Poetry and [C]prose
[F]65 [C]Roses
[F]That's the way it [C]goes
[F]We were all too [C]close
It was right under our [G]noses
(Pre-Chorus)
Well I [F]got the news today; you're [C]already on your way
[F]You can borrow time, but you s[G]till run out of days
[F]You can double down, [C]time and time again
[F]But the odds are in the favour of the [C]house, and the time has come my [G]friend
(Chorus)
I [C]cannot swim the [F]ocean [C]wide
And [G]nor do I have [F]wings to [C]fly
Just [C]light my way, when [F]it's my [C]time
Cause [G]there's a new star [F]in the [C]sky
(Verse 2)
[F]Something we can [C]treasure
For [F]now if not [C]forever
You [F]said you made your [C]peace, you're [F]ready for [C]release
If it don't get any [G]better
But [F]I just can't [C]abide it
I can't [F]believe it as I [C]write it
As [F]hearts begin to [C]sink, let's [F]raise another [C]drink
'Cause there ain't no use to [G]fight it
(Chorus) with repeat last line
(Interlude)
D Am F G with Intro Melody (x4)
(Pre-Chorus)
(Chorus) (x 2)
[G]There's a new star [F]in the [C]sky (x 3)
As [F]steady as she [C]goes
[F]65 [C]Roses
