Man of the Hour
Intro – just play around with your pinky on the C and G's to get the single notes.
C G C G C G Am G Am G
[C]Tidal waves don’t [G]beg forgiveness
[C]Crashed and on their [G]way
[C]Father he en[G]joyed collisions; [Am]others walked [G]away
A [Am]snowflake falls in [G]may.
And the [Dm]doors are open [B]now as the [Am]bells are ringing [AmaddF#]out
Cause the [F]man of the hour is taking [B]his final bow
Goodbye for now.[C]
[C]Nature has its [G]own religion; g[C]ospel from the [G]land
[C]Father ruled by [G]long division, [Am]young men they [G]pretend
[Am]Old men compre[G]hend.
And the [Dm]sky breaks at [B]dawn; shedding [Am]light upon this [AmaddG]town
They’ll all [AmaddF#]come ‘round
Cause the [F]man of the hour is taking [B]his final bow
Goodbye for now.[C]
And the [E]road
The old man [F]paved
The broken [C]seams along the [AmaddF#]way
The rusted [F]signs, left just for [E]me
He was [Am]guiding me, [AmaddG]love, his own [AmaddF#]way
Now the [F]man of the hour is taking [B]his final bow
As the [F]curtain comes down
I feel that [B]this is just goodbye for now.C
