Squeeze – Cradle To The Grave (Guitar)

D9                        E7
  They say time is of the essence

C#+                         Bm7
  They say time will always tell

G                              Gm
  I've wasted time in constant panic

       F#7
As the Rome around me fell

D9                       E7
 And each moment that is stolen

C#+                 Bm7
 Is another time to breathe

G                     Gm
 In a life of turning pages

         F#7
With the bit between my teeth

A7                      D                     F#m
 From the cradle to the grave (From the cradle to the grave)

                    D                    F#m
I know I won't be a slave (I know I wont be a slave)

                          Em7                    A7
To the mistakes that I've made  (From the cradle to the grave)

                         Em7
With the passion and the pace  (I know I won't)

     Bb                D
And I wont go till I'm ready

         A             D9
From the cradle to the grave

                          E7
They say time is a great healer

C#+                           Bm7
 They say time will not stand still

G                        Gm
 When I look outside the window

        F#7
I see a sky stuck to a hill

D9                         E7
 And the moon looks down behind me

C#+                      Bm7
 Like it's seen it all before

G                   Gm
 For a thousand generations

          F#7
Who don't live here anymore

A7                      D                      F#m
 From the cradle to the grave (From the cradle to the grave)

                    D                    F#m
I know I won't be a slave (I know I wont be a slave)

                          Em7                    A7
To the mistakes that I've made  (From the cradle to the grave)

                         Em7
With the passion and the pace  (I know I won't)

     Bb                D
And I wont go till I'm ready

         A             D9
From the cradle to the grave

                             E7
They say time will wait for no man

C#+                     Bm7
 They say time is on my side

G                    Gm
 I can never make my mind up

      F#7
As it all goes whizzing by

A7                      D                      F#m
 From the cradle to the grave (From the cradle to the grave)

No I wont go (from the cradle to the grave)
