Mostly Major Chords

[Verse 1]

She found me forty years from now

A shadow of myself

Her youth was black mascara

And red wine

We talked for hours

Of how I thought

I'd seen her somewhere else

And she was there beside me when I died

[Chorus]

What's the point in counting

When a minute is a year

Every lover has their time

Every lover has their time

What's the point in waiting

When you're gone

Before you're here

Every lover has their time

Every lover has their time

[Verse 2]

She found me seven years ago

In some piano bar

She told me I'd be paramount someday

She smiled the kind of smile

That builds a fire in the dark

She bought my gin

And then she slipped away

[Chorus]

What's the point in counting

When a minute is a year

Every lover has their time

Every lover has their time

What's the point in waiting

When you're gone

Before you're here

Every lover has their time

Every lover has their time

[Verse 3]

She found me twenty years ago

Outside my father's church

A little boy who fell and scraped his knee

She told me I was beautiful

And took away my hurt

And said that she'd forever wait for me

[Chorus]

What's the point in counting

When a minute is a year

Every lover has their time

Every lover has their time

What's the point in waiting

When you're gone

Before you're here

Every lover has their time

Every lover has their time

[Verse 4]

She found me any minute now

I've waited far too long

This rocking chair

Is wearing through the floor

She'll cry beside herself

To know I've written her this song

And be pleased

That it's in mostly major chords

[Chorus]

What's the point in counting

When a minute is a year

Every lover has their time

Every lover has their time

What's the point in waiting

When you're gone

Before you're here

Every lover has their time

Every lover has their time
