Well, if it ain't your time to go then you'd better stay put for now
ACGD
Everybody's got to do their time until it's time
GDCG
And if it ain't broken then break it and say you knew me way back when
ACGD
When fools were fools and all the rest were swine waiting to be defiled
GDCG
I could hang up my shingles out by the side of the road
ACGD
Try to bang the blame out of the cinders you left behind
GDCG
Like a driftwood in the night that was washed up by the light
ACGD
Of the moon that bleached my bones then sent me to the pile
GDCG
Mustard in your smile, land that hand on the radio dial
ACGD
Then the breezes of the season have blown us back to hell
GDCG
It's a stolen telephone that I dialed, blind and alone
ACGD
Just to hear the voice of a bargain center soul
GDCG
Now the deserts are in flame and the bandages are the same
ACGD
And the factory's casualties are looking for mangled jewels
GDCG
Well if it ain't your time to go, then you better stay put for now
ACGDG
'Cause everybody's got to put their hand upon the hand of the clock
DGDG
Like the minds of misers grinding down their gears to a halt
