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)

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)
