Verse 1 
G                 G/F# 
   I?ve got one more remaining hour  
C            C/Bb      A7sus4  A7  A79 A7 
   with you in this dusty room.  And you know that 
G          G/F#           
   just like some plastic flowers 
C            C/Bb      A7sus4  A7  A79 A7 
   You just never see them bloom 
 

C 
   Oh I burned the candle, 
D9 
   For you so many times 
G                G/F#            Em7 
   You  know they never burn too slow 
                C               C/B C/A      
   And I?ve still gotta long way to go  
    
Verse 2 (chords same as intro/verse 1) 

   I came across a wise man 

   Seemed that he might understand 

   Promised that he would lighted up my load (Yes he did now). 

   I put my money in his hand, 

   Thought he was a ticket man 

   Sent me off down the road 
 
Chorus  

   Well I put my trust 

   in so many a man 

   Never tell who?s friend of foe 

   And I?ve still gotta long way to go 
    
Bridge 
Bb               G 
   Time can be so hard (time can be so hard) 
Bb                     G            Em 
   Ain?t no shuffling of the cards that you dealt 
        A7            D 
   This I know, now I now.   
    
 
Verse 3 
   I walked through fields of snow 
   Feeling warm from the after-glow 
   I thought I?d never feel the cold 
   And you that I saw a star up in the sky, 
   Felt that it could be mine 
   Instead it was the king of rock?n?roll 
    
Chorus 
   Yeah, things aren?t always quite  
   what they seem , no. 
   I?d pay nothing to see the show 
   And I?ve still gotta long way to go.
