Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

It's a rare occasion

When your plans and expectations

Come down just exactly how you planned them.

Hey, life's just that way.

You better face the facts, sweet lady,

Things change from day to day,

It all depends upon the situation,

Who can say, any way?

Time will tell,

Oh, and we'll both know so very well,

Time will tell.

So just be patient

Until you reach the realization

You can't have joy without a little sadness, too,

etc
