VERSE:
Dm                             C
Time, time, time, see what's become of me
       Bb
While I looked around
            Am
For my possibilities
         C
I was so hard to please


CHORUS:

Carry your cup in your hand

                C
Hang on to your hopes, my friend

That's an easy thing to say, but if your hopes should pass away

Then simply pretend
             C
That you can build them again

     Dm                   C
Look around, the grass is high

The fields are ripe, it's the springtime of my life

Weaving time in a tapestry

Won't you stop and remember    me
C
  At any convenient time
Bb
Funny how my memory slips while looking over manuscripts
Am
Of unpublished rhyme
            C
Drinking my vodka and lime


CHORUS:
       Dm                 C
I look around, leaves are brown now

And the sky is a hazy shade of winter

There's a patch of snow on the ground
