  The time is too short
F                 D
  but never too long
F           D
  to reach ahead,
F                D
  to project the image,
F               D
  which will in time-
F              D           F     
  become a concrete dream.

F         D                  F     D
  again avoiding C, D, and E,
              F    D              
  'cause E is-        where you 
       F        D
play the blues.

  Avoiding a death
F              D
  is to win the game,
F             D
  to avoid relegation,
F         D
  the big E.

Drowning in the big swim,
