It’s time! It’s time! It’s time! [Verse 3] When I get you home There’ll be sunlight on your bed Close your eyes and drift off Imagining The promise of a diamond ring You the queen and I your king [Link] Sometimes a party’s A port in a storm C#m7b5 You won’t feel weary Or lost and forlorn (break) [Middle 8] Listen a nightingale sings In Berkeley Square the bright young things Are flying on chemical wings Share with me one last fling tonight [Middle 8] | | % | | % | | | % | | % | It’s time!
