Plenty Of Time chords by Connie Smith

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
         Eb         C+       C7  Fm
I got up on Sunday morning, went to the church at ten,
   Bb7                           Eb
I listened to the words that I’d heard time and time again;
    Ab                                  Eb                Cm
The preacher spoke of sinful lives, it seemed he spoke of mine,
           Fm          Bb7        Eb
But I was young, I had plenty of time.

Verse 2:
         Eb              C+       C7    Fm
I walked on down life’s pathway, living as I wished to live,
       Bb7                           Eb
Out to beat the other fellow, out to get what life could give;
       Ab                          Eb           Cm
Making money is not sinful, having fun is not a crime,
             Fm              Bb7       Eb
So I’ll just wait, I’ve got plenty of time.

Chorus:
 Ab       Bb7       Eb             Fm
Plenty of time to decide where I’m bound,
    Fm7     Bb7        Eb
To eternal darkness or to a heavenly crown;
 Ab         Bb           Eb         Cm
I’m just a young man not yet in my prime,
             Fm              Bb7       Eb
So I’ll just wait, I’ve got plenty of time.

Verse 3:
       Eb              C+        C7     Fm
Before I knew what had happened life’s scenes had passed away,
    Bb7                                    Eb
And millions stood before God’s throne for it was judgment day;
     Ab                                Eb               Cm
Now eternal darkness beckons, and the name it calls is mine,
       Fm            Bb7       Eb
But I thought I had plenty of time.

Chorus 2:
  Ab      Bb7             Eb        Cm
Eternity waits, I’ve got plenty of time,
    Fm7             Bb7          Eb
To think of all the days Christ could have been mine;
Ab           Bb            Eb              Cm
My chance is over, earth’s days are left behind,
            Fm           Bb7       Eb
And here am I, I’ve got plenty of time.

Tag:
              Fm          Bb7       Eb4    Eb
Now I’ve got nothing but plenty of time.
