 The Time Machine - Collin Raye
 (Gary Burr)
 G Bm Em C D C G
    G           Bm
 He circled and stared
 Em          C 
 nervous and scared
    G                             D
 he knew both the thrill and the cost
         G            Bm
 but he didnāt think twice
       Em       C
 this amazing device
         Am                         D
 was his last chance to see what heād lost
        C                 D
 now if time is really a river
        G                           C
 and upstreamās where he needed to be
            G             C
 he set his sights on the past
     G    Bm      Em
 and finished his glass
     D            C     G
 and went back in history
 
        C                  D
 To the casual eye it's a barstool
          G           Bm          C
 but it's really much more than it seems
   G               C
 a few drinks and then
            G        Em
 she'll be with him again
        D           C      G
 as he sits on the time machine
 
 Bm Em C
 
      G       Bm
 Like all pioneers
    Em           C
 he swallowed his fears
     G
 and watched the whole room
         D 	
 fade to black
      G        Bm
 he's dying to go
 
          Em         C
 but he's no fool, he knows
     Am                     D
 how hard it will be to come back
       C                        D
 but tonight he's tired of the lonely
       G                       C
 and tomorrow will not be the cure
          G             C
 so he'll just slip away 
 G    Bm     Em
 find yesterday
     D              C          G
 and spend one more night with her
 
        C                         Bm
 Now as far as the customers can tell
           D                  G
 he's just one more fool who talks to himself
 >          C                            Bm
 but every man in this place would line up
         Em   		            D
 if they knew what that seat really was
 
            C                 D
 But to the casual eye it's a barstool
          G           Bm          C	
 but it's really much more than it seems
        G               C
 just a few drinks and then
            G         Em 
 she'll be with him again
        D           C      G
 as he sits on the time machine
 
         G                 C
 Just a few drinks and then
           G          Em
 she'll be with him again
        D          C       G
 as he sits on the time machine
 
 Bm Em C D C G
