Standard (EADGBE)
intro single notes (bass and organ)
So precious and fleeting
I loved them all Time to go
Down the street I watch you go
Like there's no tomorrow Where we know
Cause Everybody's is gone
And all the old lamps are burning out
And all those voices of joy and laughter
Well them new folks done moved them out
But if I listen close I can hear them
Lord they're calling me to come on
It's just a matter of time
Cause I got nowhere left to call home
naa na naa na na naa naaa
na na na na na naaaaaaa na naa naaa
I see you waiting But I know you won't understand
Sand falling on through, through my hands
Cause Everybody's is gone
And all the old lamps are burning out
å
And all those voices of joy and laughter
Well them new folks done moved them out
But if I listen close I can hear them
Lord they're calling me to come on
It's just a matter of time
Cause I got nowhere left to call home
