Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][Csus2][G][Am][Em][G][C][Csus2][Am][Em]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[C]Fred sits [Am]alone at [Em]his desk in the dark
[G]There's an awk[C]ward,
young [Am]shadow that [Em]waits in [G]the hall
[Am]He has cleared all [F]his things and
he's [Am]put them [F]in boxes
[C]Things that remind him that [G]life
has been [F]good

[Verse 2]
25 years he's [Dm]worked at the paper
A [C]man's here to take him
[Csus2]down stai[G]rs[Am][G]
And [C]I'm sorry, [Dm]Mr. J[F]ones,
[G]it's [C]time[Am]
[Em][G][C][Csus2][Am][Em][G]

[Verse 3]
[C]There was no [Am]party,
[Em]there were no song[G]s
'Cause [C]today's just [Am]a day
like [Em]the day that he started
[G]No [Am]one has left her[F]e that
[Am]knows his first name
[F]Yeah, and[C] life barrels on
like a [G]runaway train
Where the pas[F]sengers change,
they don't [Dm]change anything
You get [C]off, someone else can get on
[G]

[Verse 4]
And [C]I'm sorry, [Dm]Mr. J[F]ones,
[G]it's [C]time[Am]
[Em][G][C][Am][Em][G]

[Verse 5]
[Am]Streetlight,
it shines through [Em]the shades
Casting [F]lines on the floor
and [C]lines on his face
[G]He refle[F]cts on the[C] day

[Interlude 1]
[C][Am][Em][Am][Em]
[C][F][Em][Am][Em][C][F]
[Em][D][Am][D]

[Verse 6]
[C]Fred gets his paint[Am]s out and
[Em]goes to the base[G]ment
Pro[C]jecting [Am]some slides [Em]onto [G]a plain,
white [Am]canvas
[F]And traces it, [Am]fills in [F]the spaces
He turn[C]s off the slides and
it [G]doesn't look right yet
And [F]all of these bastards
have [Dm]taken his place
He's for[C]gotten and not yet gone

[Verse 7]
[G]And [C]I'm sorry, [Dm]Mr. J[C]ones[F]
[G]And I'm[C] sorry, Mr. Jon[F]es
[G]And I'm[C] sorry, Mr.[Dm] Jon[C]es, it's tim[F]e[G][C]
