Intro
[Em] [D/F#] [G] [Em] [D] [Cadd9]
Verse
[G]Eight years old a couple cane poles sitting down by the creek
[Em]Our lines in the water watching those bobbers seeing that red sun sink
[Cadd9]Mama's on the porch yelling supper's hot, y'all come and get it
We yelled [Em]five [D]more [Cadd9]minutes
[G]At sixteen it was twelve o three standing at her front door
[Em]Katie's dad said midnight, but we needed just a little more
[Cadd9]Yellow light flipping on and off, interrupting that goodnight kissing
We wanted [Em]five [D]more [Cadd9]minutes
Chorus
[Cadd9]Time rolls by the clock don't stop
I wish I had a few more drops
Of the [G]good stuff, the good times[Em]
Oh but they just keep on flying
[Cadd9]Right on by like it ain't nothing
Wish I had me a pause button
Em D (Cadd9)
Moments like those Lord knows I'd hit it
Give myself [Em]five [D]more [Cadd9]minutes
Verse 2
[G]At eighteen turned my helmet in and walked to the fifty yard line
[Em]It's just the coach and me after we lost state, ten to nine
[Cadd9]And I cried man next time to get in here I'll have to buy a ticket
Can't you give me [Em]five [D]more [Cadd9]minutes
Chorus
[Cadd9]Time rolls by the clock don't stop
I wish I had a few more drops
Of the [G]good stuff, the good times[Em]
Oh but they just keep on flying
[Cadd9]Right on by like it ain't nothing
Wish I had me a pause button
[Em]Moments like those [D]Lord knows I'd [Cadd9]hit it
Give myself [Em]five [D]more [Cadd9]minutes
Verse 3
[G]At eighty-six my grandpa said there's angels in the room
[Em]With all the family gathered 'round we knew that time was coming soon
[Cadd9]With so much left to say I prayed Lord I ain't finished
Just give us [Em]five [D]more [Cadd9]minutes
Chorus
[Cadd9]Time rolls by the clock don't stop
I wish I had a few more drops
[G]Of the good stuff, the good times[Em]
Oh but they just keep on flying
[Cadd9]Right on by like it ain't nothing
Wish I had me a pause button
[Em]Moments like those [D]Lord knows I'd [Cadd9]hit it
[Em]Yeah sometimes this [D]ole life will leave you [Cadd9]wishing
That you had [Em]five [D]more [Cadd9]minutes
Oh [Em]five [D]more [Cadd9]minutes
