[Verse]
CFred sits aAm7lone at his dEm7esk in the daGrk
There's an awCkward young sAm7hadow that Em7waits in the hGall
He's cAmleared all his things Fand he's pAmut them in boxFes
CThings that remind him 'LGife has been good'
AmTwenty-five years
He's woFrked at the paper
CA man's here to take him doGwnGsus4stairsG
[Chorus]
And I'm sCorry Mr JonFes
GIt's tiCme
[Verse]
CThere was nAm7o party thereEm7 were no songGs
CCause today's Am7just a day Em7like the day tGhat he started
AmNo one has leFft here that kAmnows his first nFame
And life bCarrels on like a runaway tGrain
Where the pAmassengers change
They don't cFhange anything
CYou get off someone else caGn Gsus4get onG
[Chorus]
And I'm sCorry Mr JonFes
GIt's tiCme
[Bridge]
AmStreetlight shines through the Emshades
Casting Flines on the floor and liCnes on his G/Bface
He rFeflects on the dCay
[Verse]
CFred gets hAm7is paints outEm7 and goes to Gthe basement
CProjecting Am7some slides oEm7nto a plain wGhite
AmCanvas and traFces it filAmls in the spFaces
He tuCrns off the slides and it doeGsn't look right
Yeah and alAml of these bastards
Have taFken his place
CHe's forgotten but not yet GgoGsus4ne G
[Chorus]
And I'm soCrry Mr JoneFs
And I'm soCrry Mr JoneFs
And I'm soCrry Mr JoneFs
GIt's tiCme
