Hands Of Time chords by Margo Price

🎸 Intro:

G

🎸 Verse 1:
G
When I rolled out of town on the unpaved road
G
I was fifty-seven Dollars from being broke
G
Kissed my mama and my sisters, I said goodbye
    C                                    C             G        G
And with my suitcase packed I whiped the tears from my eyes


🎸 Verse 2:
G

Times they were tough, growing up at home
G
My daddy lost the farm when I was two years old
G
Took a job at the prison, working second shift
    C                               C                   G       G
And that's the last time I let them take what should be his


🎸 Chorus:
C
Cause all I wanna Do is make a little cash
G
Cause I worked all the bad jobs, bustin' my hands
C
I wanna buy back the farm and bring my mama home some wine
    C                          G              C        Cm
And turn back the clock on the cruel hands of time


🎸 Verse 3:
G
When I hit the city, I joined the band
        G
Started singing in the bars and running with the men
        G
But the men they brought me problems and the drinking caused me grief
  C                                C            G         G
I thought I'd found a friend but I only found a thief


🎸 Verse 4:
G
Soon I settled down with a married man
   G
We had a couple babies, started living off the land
    G
But my firstborn died and I cried out to God
         C                       C             G         G
Is there anybody up there lookin down on me at all?


🎸 Chorus:
C
Cause all I wanna Do is make something last
G
But I can't see the future, I can't change the past
C
I wanna buy back the farm and bring my mama home some wine
C                          G              C
Turn back the clock on the cruel hands of time


🎸 Solo:  (same as chorus)
C C G G C G C C


🎸 Verse 5:
G
Still I keep a'running fast as I can
          G
Trying to make something honest with my own two hands
   G
And I ain't got the breath to say another bad word
        C                            C               G         G
So if I ever said it wrong won't you forget what you heard


🎸 Chorus:
C
Cause all I want to Do is make my own path
G
Cause I know what I am, I know what I have
C
I want to buy back the farm and bring my mama home some wine
C                          G              C
Turn back the clock on the cruel hands of time
C      G              C
Cruuuuuuuuel hands of time
C      G              C
Cruuuuuuuuel hands of time
C      G              C
Cruuuuuuuuel hands of time
C      G              C
