Well I met an old man [G] walking down [D] the street
[A] His clothes were torn and tattered with [D] sandals on his feet
And I stopped to help him and [G] lend him [D] a hand
He [A] said, I love you so much, but you must understand
Silver [D] and gold might buy you a home
But things [E] of this [Em] [A] world, they won't [D] last you long
And time has a way of turning us old
And time [Em] can't be bought [A] back with [D] silver and gold
And he said to me, let's pray [G] [D]
while [A] we have some good news
[D] To share with each child
He said, you can't change this old world
But people [G] [D] need to know that [A] our dear Savior died here
A long, long time ago
[D] Silver and gold might buy you a home
But things of [Em] this [A] world, they won't [D] last you long
And time has a way of turning us old
And time [Em] can't be bought [A] back with [D] silver and gold
His eyes, they shone like diamonds
And [G] his smile [D] was heaven-sent
[A] His hair was long and flowing
And [D] his back was slightly bent
And I knew he knew it
Was that [G] the year [D]
changed
And [A] as I watched him walk on
I forgot to get his name
He said, [D] silver and gold can't buy you a home
When this life [Em] 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 [A] there with [D] silver and gold
And time [Em] can't be bought [A] back with [D] silver and [A] gold
[D] [G]
[A] His clothes were torn and tattered with [D] sandals on his feet
