_ _ _ _ _ _ There's a time when the truth is bad and it's so very sad.
_ I [F] was a kid like a mother's side, used to hear the freight trains cry.
They kept [C] me on the go, you know.
[F] Even now I stop to hear, big freight trucks a-shifting gears.
[C] Tell me what I want to know, you know. _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ [C] _ _ _ _
There's a time when you face your soul to find if you are true.
_ [F] Remember your face so clear, sometimes it seems I hear,
[C] the softness of your sigh, your sigh.
[D] But I remember another time, autumn [F] here and summer's dying,
and you asked me not [C] to go, I know. _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ [C] _ _ _ _
There's a time when the past is past, filled with things that never last.
_ [F] The freight train lonesome whistles cry, becomes a song but there's the sky.
[C] Spring always comes again, again.
[F] But in that old car on its Christmas time, filled with kids and they all were crying.
[C] They had no place to go, I know. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
There's a time when you face the sky to find if you are here and why.
_ [F] The freight trains far away cry, [D] we're on the ground when the dew's not dry.
You [C] hear a rooster crow, I know.
Just like a morning star, that you see so far, through the clear, clear sky.
The sky. _ _ _ _
