Over The Hill

• F

Over The Hill by Loudon Wainwright III
Tabbed by JRS



F                     Dm
Once you were a young man,
                 C                     F
But now you are old - you're over the hill.
                F                       Dm
And you can't cross the palm of time's hand
                  C                 F
With silver and gold to make him stand still.

F                         Dm
Who could have possibly thought
                C                      F
It would go so fast, but it certainly did.
            F              Dm
And now you find yourself caught
                       C                         F
With less future than past - you're no longer a kid.


C
Once, as a boy, time weighed heavy on your hands -
Gm                         C
You couldn't wait to be a man.


F                                  Dm
Now you cry - oh, it's so hard to laugh,
                   C                                F
And you can't understand why you can't turn time around.
        F                      Dm
Your hourglass once had a top half
                         C                            F
That was filled full of sand, but it's all trickled down.
