Verse 1
 
G               C 
I was born on a Saturday, 
Am                                 C 
My dad he held me screaming in his arms, 
G                       C 
He can talk like it was yesterday, 
Am                               C 
When I got that holy water in my eye, 
G                    Am 
It’s alright, is it just alright. 
 
Pre-Chorus
 
C 
See all those faces coming down, 
Trying not to let them down, 
G                  Am 
This time, babe is that alright, 
C 
Well I can still see the sun on the water, 
I can still feel your sunlight. 
 
Chorus
 
Am             C          (intro riff) 
And all I ever wanted was time, 
Am             C                    (intro riff) 
You know that all I ever wanted was time. 
 
Verse 2
 
G                 C 
And I know that I come on strong, 
Am                              C 
Forgive me I just couldn’t help myself, 
G                          C 
And I have changed but I’m better now, 
Am                                    C 
And I see you in this new and perfect light, 
G                      Am 
You’re so fine, you’re oh so fine. 
 
Pre-Chorus
 
C 
See all those faces coming down, 
Trying not to let them down, 
G                  Am 
This time, babe is that alright, 
C 
Well I can still see the sun on the water, 
I can still feel your sunlight.

You know that all I ever wanted was time.
