Tuning:

Time in a Bottle by Jim Croce TABBED by John H P Rushton This song is played in 3/4 time ( 1 & 2 & 3 & ). The chords are a simplification of other chording shown for this song, posted elsewhere on this site. In the version that I have put forward, 'syntax' errors have also been corrected.

If^Am I could save time in a bottle The ^Dmfirst thing that I'd like to ^Edo Is to sav^Ame every day till ^Feternity passes ^Amaway Just to spend them with ^Eyou.

If^Am I could make days last forever If ^Dmwords could make wishes come ^Etrue I'd ^Amsave every day like a ^Ftreasure and then ^Amagain I would spend them with ^Eyou.

But there ^Anever seems to be enough time To ^Gdo the things you want to do ^BmOnce you find them I've loo^Aked around enough to know That ^Gyou're the one I ^Bmwant to go through ^Etime with.

If^Am I had a box just for wishes And ^Dmdreams that had never come ^Etrue The ^Ambox would be empty ^Fexcept for the memory Of ^Amhow They were answered by ^Eyou

But there ^Anever seems to be enough time To ^Gdo the things you want to do ^BmOnce you find them I've loo^Aked around enough to know That ^Gyou're the one I ^Bmwant to go through ^Etime with.
