John Lucas – Time chords

[Intro]

B   G#m  B    G#m
E   B    E    B


[Verse 1]

   D#m        G#m            EMy heart has known the winters
                     B
And my feet have known the snow
        D#m         G#m
But mine eyes have seen the glory
     E             BOf a seed begin to grow

           D#m      G#m           EThere is a time to uproot, darling
                     B
But most days just hold on tight
     D#m               G#mFor there’s a time for darkness, honey
     E                            BBut dawn will always beat the night 

B   G#m   B   G#m
E   B   E   B


[Verse 2]

    F#        G#m                  ESometimes death will come calling

                         BWhen you’ve been good and warned
            F#         G#m                  E
And other times its cold hands will cradle

       F#          BDreams yet to be born 

            F#      G#m            EThere is a time to dance on sorrow

                      BAnd a time to kiss her cheek

            F#      G#m             EThere is a time to mourn in silence

            F#                    BBut justice aches to hear you speak 


[Chorus]

    C#m               G#m          E      BAnd I don’t know the end, or tomorrow’s story

    C#m              G#m                   EBut I have found the one who gives me rest

    C#m            G#m         E    BAnd I will make my bed in His promises
    C#m       G#m                     E
For He holds true when nothing’s left
                   BWhen nothing’s left


[Verse 3]

            F#           G#m            EThere is a time when laughter will echo
                          B
Through your halls of peace

            F#           G#m           EBut war is known to change your locks
            F#                B
And carry off the family keys

                       G#m            EThere is a time for healing and pain
                             B
A time for drought and a time for rain

            F#       G#m        EThere is a time for everything
          F#              G#m   E
Until we crown the risen King
          F#                    BUntil we crown the risen King 


[Chorus]

    C#m               G#m          E      BAnd I don’t know the end, or tomorrow’s story
    C#m              G#m                  E
But I have found the one who gives me rest

    C#m            G#m        E     BAnd I will make my bed in His promises

    C#m       G#m                     EFor He holds true when nothing’s left


[Bridge]

   ESo crown Him in your mourning

    F#And crown Him in your laughter

    G#m                             BAnd crown Him when it all turns dark
E
Crown Him when you bury
    F#
And crown Him when you marry

    G#m                                     BAnd crown Him when your faith finds a spark 
ECrown Him for He’s faithful
    F#
And crown Him for He’s worthy

    G#m                      BAnd crown Him for He is good

ECrown Him for His promises
F#
Cut through the blindness
  G#m                                   B
Of children that have barely understood
    EThe beauty that has come

        F#And the beauty yet to come
        G#m                                   B
And the beauty that is yours and that is mine

         EAnd that death produces life

         F#And that we are made alive

       G#m                              BBy the King who paints beauty with time

       E                F#        G#mBy the King who paints beauty with time

       E                F#             BBy the King who paints beauty with time


[Chorus]

      B                        G#m        BAnd I don’t know the end, or tomorrow’s story
                      G#m                  EBut I have found the one who gives me rest

      F#           G#m             BAnd I will make my bed in His promises
    F#       G#m                     E
For He holds true when nothing’s left
                   BWhen nothing’s left
