Hands Of Time (CHORDS) by Margo Price

[Intro]~
A


[Verse 1]~
A
When I rolled out of town on the unpaved road

E
I was fifty-seven Dollars from being broke

A
Kissed my mama and my sisters, I said goodbye

    G                                    D             A        E
And with my suitcase packed I whiped the tears from my eyes


[Verse 2]~
A
Times they were tough, growing up at home

E
My daddy lost the farm when I was two years old

A
Took a job at the prison, working second shift

    G                               D                   A       E
And that's the last time I let them take what should be his


[Chorus]~
G
Cause all I wanna do is make a little cash

C
Cause I worked all the bad jobs, bustin' my hands

G
I wanna buy back the farm and bring my mama home some wine

    D                          C              G        G#
And turn back the clock on the cruel hands of time


[Verse 3]~
A
When I hit the city, I joined the band

        E
Started singing in the bars and running with the men

        A
But the men they brought me problems and the drinking caused me grief

  G                                D            A         E
I thought I'd found a friend but I only found a thief


[Verse 4]~
A
Soon I settled down with a married man

   E
We had a couple babies, started living off the land

    A
But my firstborn died and I cried out to God

         G                       D             A         E
Is there anybody up there lookin down on me at all?


[Chorus]~
G
Cause all I wanna do is make something last

C
But I can't see the future, I can't change the past

G
I wanna buy back the farm and bring my mama home some wine

D                          C              G
Turn back the clock on the cruel hands of time


[Solo]~
G G C C D C G G


[Verse 5]~
A
Still I keep a'running fast as I can

          E
Trying to make something honest with my own two hands

   A
And I ain't got the breath to say another bad word

        G                            D               A         E
So if I ever said it wrong won't you forget what you heard


[Chorus]~
G
Cause all I want to do is make my own path

C
Cause I know what I am, I know what I have

G
I want to buy back the farm and bring my mama home some wine

D                          C              G
Turn back the clock on the cruel hands of time

D      C              G
Cruuuuuuuuel hands of time

D      C              G
Cruuuuuuuuel hands of time

D      C              G
Cruuuuuuuuel hands of time

D      C              G
