There's a time when the truth is bad
C majorC
And that's so very sad, I know
   FF
When I was a kid, like a mother's sigh
FF
I used to hear the freight trains cry
          C majorC
They kept me on the go, you know

Even now I stop to hear

The big trucks a-shifting gear

It's what I want to know, you know

Verse:
C majorC
There's a time when the past is past
C majorC
Filled with things that never last, I know
  FF
The freight trains' lonesome whistles cry
FF
Becomes a song but there's the sky
           C majorC
Spring always comes again, hmm hmm
FF
That old car, it was Christmas time
FF
Filled with kids and they were all crying
           C majorC       A minorAm
They had no place to go, I know

Chorus:
  G+G    C majorC    A minorAm

Hmm hmm, hmm hmm

Verse:
C majorC
There's a time when you face your soul
C majorC
To find if you are true and whole, you know
FF
I remember your face so clear
FF
Sometimes it seems I hear
           C majorC
The softness of your sigh, your sigh
  FF
And I remember another time
FF
Autumn's here and summer's dying
          C majorC
You asked me not to go, don't go

There's a time when you face the sky
C majorC
To find if you are here and why, you know
 FF
I like to watch the eagle fly
 FF
In the early dawn when the dew's not dry
         C majorC
I hear a rooster crow, hmm hmm
FF
Just like a morning star
FF
That you see from afar
             C majorC        A minorAm
Through the clear, clear sky, the sky
