This is a really simple song, room for loads of lovely harmonies, and frilly
bits.Oh and if you own a harmonica let 'er rip :>

Intro
(G       C         D         G    play thorugh the progression until you're
good and ready to start singing)

Verse 1
G                          C		D	G      C   D   G
When every dollar that I'm ever gonna earn, I spent,
G			    C           D       G      C   D   G
And all the places that I'm ever gonna go I went,
G		       C          D         G       C    D   G
And everybody that I'm ever gonna know I meet,
         G (mute strings)       C       D        G       C   D  G
Then I'll stop waiting for this time to get too sweet.

Chorus:
G                        c      d      g
And I know the time is coming round again,

When all the pieces of my life will be falling down again right into place.
G                    C     D       G
I know the time is coming round again.

verse 2
G                            C      D            G     C   D   G
Pass me the bottle Let's get happy. Drink some wine.
G                                    C          D      G      C   D  G
We'll go to your place, Cause right now I can't find mine.
G                        C        D      G       C   D  G
Do you remember when we used to sing and dance?
 G  (mute again)                 C      D       G       C    D    G
Well...it doesn't matter now we never stood a chance.

Chorus:

And I know the time is coming round again,
G                                      C            D                 G
When all the pieces of my life will be falling down again right into place.
G                    C     D       G
I know the time is coming round again.

Bridge:

Em              	    C                 D
Maybe some day I'll find a place to call my own.
Em                              C                  D
Somewhere where I can sit and watch the seeds I've sown,
C                             G
But all I've got right now is cigarettes and beer
C                          D
And the sound of something ringing in my ear ...


Chorus:
G                        c      d      g
And I know the time is coming round again,
G                                      C            D                 G
When all the pieces of my life will be falling down again right into place.
G                    C     D       G
I know the time is coming round again.
