Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

x2

Sometimes I tell you to just sit still

When you know that it's time to run

Sometimes I tell you it's all over

When you're sure that it's just begun

Chorus

The iron wheel slowly spins around

It takes you from the cradle 'til you're six feet underground

You push and pull against it but you'll ride it 'til it's through

And those who spin the wheel well those fuckers ride it too

Sometimes I tell you to move along

When you're sure you should stand and fight

Sometimes I tell you that you're a lucky man

But the numbers they don't add up right

Chorus

The good wife rides the wheel as the years just slip away

T.V. preacher rides the wheel as he leads the flock astray

Lady Justice rides the wheel but her balance is unsure

Cause the truth it lies in pieces scattered on the newsroom floor

Sometimes I tell you to just let go

When you're sure you should hold on tight

Sometimes I tell you you're time will never come

When you're sure that your time's come tonight

Chorus
