      TIME WILL SHOW THE WISER
Fairport Convention

D                C                G          D
My mind keeps on telling me that this is no good
 D              C            G          D
And my heart is aching, that tells me I should
D        C         G        D
But only time will show the wiser

D              C           G               D
I’ve fallen in love with a girl that's not mine
  D                   C           G                   D
If I take her it will hurt him, a very best friend of mine
D                 C                G        D
But I know that I need someone, to hold, to love
D                  C                G            D
And my mind says I shouldn’t but my heart says I should

Em     D                  C         G          D
And I don’t know which to go by, my mind or my heart
 D                 C           G           D
And this is so confusing, it’s tearing me apart
 C            G        D
Time, it will show the wiser

D                          C             G           D
Well, I wish someone would help me, this decision is mine
 D                C             G       D
And my morals and emotions are hard to combine
D               C        G                D
And there is no easy way out to limit the time
 D                     C                 G           D
That it takes till she finds out for the love that I hide
 D                        C         G          D
And I don’t know which to go by, my mind or my heart
 D                 C            G          D
And this is so confusing, it’s tearing me apart

C             G        D
Time, it will show the wiser
C             G        D
Time, it will show the wiser
C             G        D
Time, it will show the wiser
