[D] When I was a child I was taught that money, even though it was necessary, [A] was not the [D] most important thing in life.
Kindness, tenderness, understanding, forgiveness, and love were the things of real value.
Well I met an old man
[G] walking [D] down the street.
[A] His clothes were torn and tattered
[D] with sandals on his feet.
And I stopped to help him and [G] lend [D] a hand.
He [A] said,
I love you so much, but you must [Em]
understand
[D] silver and gold
might buy you a home.
But things [Em] of this world,
[A]
they won't [D] last too long.
And time has a way of
turning us old.
And time [Em] can't be bought back
[A]
with [D] silver and gold.
And he said to me, let's [G] rest for [D]
a [A] while
because I have some good news [D] to share with you, child.
He said you can't change this old world, but [G] people [D] need
[A] that a dear
savior died here a long long time ago.
And silver [D] and gold
might buy you a home.
But things of [Em] this world,
[D]
[A] they won't [D] last too long.
And time has a way of
turning us old.
And time [Em] can't be bought back
[A]
with [D] silver and gold.
His eyes shone like diamonds and his smile
[G] was [D] heaven sent.
[A] His hair was long and flowing and [D] his back
was slightly bent.
And I knew he knew it
because [G] that day [D] I changed.
[A] And as I
watched him walk on, I forgot to [Bm] get [Em] his name.
He said silver [D] and gold
can't buy you a home.
When this [Em] life has ended
[A]
and your [D] time is gone,
but you can live in a world
where you'll never grow old.
And things [Em] can't be bought back
[A]
with [D] silver and gold.
And time [Em] can't be bought back
[A]
with [D] silver and gold.
