Time Forgot
Conor Oberst
| D | Em |
| Polished my shoes, bought a | brand new hat, |
| G | D |
Moved to a | town that time for | got. |
| D | Em |
| Where I don’t have to shave or be ap | proachable; |
| G | A |
No I can do | just what I | want. |
| Em | A | D | G |
| I wanna walk in that | howling wind ‘til it | scatters all my | thoughts, |
| Em | A | D | G |
| Sit all alone on the | river bank ‘til I for | get that I can | talk - |
They say everyone has a choice to make To be loved or to be free. | |
I told you once I felt invisible, And I guess by now you see. | |
That what I meant is I’m not all there until I finally leave, | |
Some loneliness is acceptable and some’s just out right mean - | |
| G | A | D | G |
| The ivy crawls up the | garden wall builds a | ladder towards the | sun. |
| G | A | D | G |
| It can’t be climbed but who’s | gonna mind if I | claim it can be | done - |
| A | A | Bm |
| And the sun goes down, | and the stars come | out, |
| Em | A | D |
The | distance that I felt, I can | see it for myself | now. |
Boarded a train to take my memories back, Make up for time that I have lost. | |
I’ll never know if I’m delusional I just believe that I am not. | |
I’m gonna work for my sanity, give it everything I got | |
Tough so far I have cheated death, I know someday I’ll get caught - | |
So here we go man, it’s beautiful, get your trumpet, get your drum. | |
We’ll be keeping time in a second line, it can make you feel so young. | |
I know you say you’ll go all the way but that’s not quite far enough. | |
Someone told me that same thing, Someone told me that same thing, | |
Someone told me that exact same thing once. | |
