Verse 1 
C                           Dm    C 
There's a solitary man crying hold me 
C                         Dm   C 
It's only because he's a lonely 
C                         Dm   C 
if the keeper of time runs slowly 
C                           Dm   C 
He won't be alive for Long! 
F                                          C 
If He Only Had Time to tell of all of the things he planned 
         G 
With a card up his sleeve, what would he achieve? 
            F     Em      G   G 
It means nothing 
Verse 2 (Same Chords) 
To the opuim dens and the bar room gin 
In the belmont chair  playing violins 
The gamble's face crack into a grin  
As he lay's down the king of spades 
But the dealer just stares, there's something wrong here he 
thinks 
The gambler is siezed and forced to his knees 
and shot dead 
Verse 3 (vocal lay out 4 lines)

2

4 
 He only wanted more time away from the darkest door 
 But his luck it gave in as the dawn light crept in 
 and he lay on the floor 
Verse 4 
Fromt the hundred year war to the crimea 
With a lance and a musket and a roman spear 
To all of the men who have stood with no fear 
In the service of the king 
Before you met your fate be sure you did no forsake 
Your lover may no be around anymore 
Verse 5 (Instrumental) 
Repeat Verse 1 without last 3 lines (vocal)
