Brian Bulger – Widower Acoustic chords

[Verse 1]
ABeen a righteous gentleman
EA man of many skins
ATried to list them all
EBut I don’t know where to begin
ABeggar, thief, a king
EShephard with a sling
AYou can keep your sword and shield
EI don’t need anything

[Instrumental]
A E A E

[Verse 2]
AI built a house my dear
ESo I could keep you near
AA voice from above
EWas singin’, “have no fear”
AYou were my consequence
EIn this holy turn of events
ANo need to overthink it
E‘Cause love makes no sense

[Instrumental]
A E A E

[Chorus]
BTime seems to tell me,
        A“There’s nothing left for you,
     Eso, slow down”
BLove used to be a friend
    A                          EBut I don’t see much of him anymore

[Verse 3]
AWe made a love so strong
EYou made this coward belong
ABeauty and innocence
ETell me what went wrong
AA sickness I couldn’t heal
EA sorrow that couldn’t be real
ATell me there’s a reason for this
ETell me what’s left to feel

[Instrumental]

AI thought that I’d done right
EBut he still came in the night
ATell me what must be done
ETo forever hold you tight

[Chorus]
BTime seems to tell me,

     Eso, slow down”

AI had my money saved
EWe picked our wedding day
AThe Lord sure does give
EAnd He sure does take away
