Its Time To Pay The Fiddler

G
Well it's time to pay the fiddler
                                         C
And it's sad to know we've danced it all away
        D7
But the warm night's disappearing
                                           G
Leaving nothing but the cold hard light of day
And it's time to start erasing
                                           C
All the rainbows we've been chasing in our minds
   D7
We know there's no way of making
                               G
Other ties on us unravel and unwind
Yes it's time to pay the fiddler
                                            C
And today's the day the first installment's due
        D7
For the rest of all my days I'll wonder why
                            G
The maker mismatched me and you
But there's so much to consider like my wife and little children
                                         C
Will need and want my love just like you do
         D7
Now it's time to pay the fiddler but before we pay the fiddler
                                            G
Let's ask him to please play one last final tune
Well it's time to pay the fiddler
                                            C
And there's naked sorrow dripping from your eyes
    D7
Unrestrained and unashamed we love each other
                          G
Now we've got to leave it lie

But I can feel my hands trembling
                                      C
As I search to find the handle on the door
         D7
So let's let the fiddler pull his magic bow
                                   G
Across our heart strings just once more
