Difference Is Time 

Capo 3rd fret


 G 
Well call me if you wanna talk
             C
There's a telephone on your wall
         D
And the reasons are many
     C           G
And not to far apart
                  G
If there's some blood left in your heart
               C
Well let our lovin' finally start
        D
If you run you can catch me 
            C                G
My head is wide but not to sharp

 Am                D
I wanna hear the whistle blow
          C      G
And the feelings go
 Am                    C            D
I wanna be done with everything I know

 Am                 D
The difference is time
          G                        Em
It's the past, present, weighted lines
 Am                D 
The difference it time
                G               Em
It's his, it's yours, and it's especially mine
 Am                D   G
The difference is time 

           G
And it's hard to stand on my feet
            C
With this weight of vagrancy
            D
I've been trying to tell the difference
              C            G
Between the road and my street
            G
There's an end I wish you would meet
           C
When I'm done dancing to this beat
         D
On my headstone it will be written
         C                 G
Life is hard even if you cheat

 Am                D
I wanna hear the whistle blow
           C      G
And the feelings roll
 Am                     C        D
I wanna be done with everyone I know

 Am                 D
The difference is time
          G                       Em
It's the past, present, weighted lines
 Am                D 
The difference it time
                G               Em
It's his, it's yours, and it's especially mine
 Am                D   G G/F# Em 
The difference is time 
 Am            D   G
Difference is time

 Em
Don't act 
                            D
As if there ain't nothing wrong
         Em                                   D
With a switch like that, it's mean to keep it on
