[Pre-Chorus]
Ab Fm I taught Thomas constellations in the sky Ab Db Eb To tell a silver maple from a cotton wood Ab Fm I taught Thomas to divide and multiply Ab Db Eb Gb But one he never understood was time
[Chorus]
Db As I watched him grow, time Ab He would never know time Db Gb For my regret resides time Db If I only knew the what and how and who Eb Cm Ab That time truly divides
Fm

Ab Fm There was a farmhouse with a grandfather clock Ab Fm Where one day I woke up alone Ab They feared I was magic Fm They feared I was cursed Ab Db Eb But mostly they feared the unknown
