Lyrics

An oth er turn ing point, a fork stuck in the (D5)road.

Time grabs you by the wrist, di rects you where to (D5)go.

So make the best of this test and don’t ask why.

It’s not a ques tion, but a les son learned in (G)time.

It’s (Em)some thing un pre dict a ble, but (Em)in the end it’s right.

I (Em)hope you had the time of your life.

So take the pho to graphs and still frames in your (D5)mind,

Time hang it on a shelf in good health and good (D5)time.

Tat toos of mem o and dead and skin on trial,

for what it’s worth, tion, it was worth son all the (G)while.

It’s (Em)some thing un pre dict a ble, but (Em)in the end it’s right.

I (Em)hope you had the time of your life.

It’s

It’s (Em)some thing un pre dict a ble, but (Em)in the end it’s right.

I (Em)hope you had the time of your life.

Does it show chords so I can play along on guitar or piano?
It does — a chord symbol sits on a thin row just above the lyric it changes on, so the same screen doubles as a lyrics-and-chords chart. Guitarists can strum the changes and pianists can comp while singing; the chords are colour-coded and move with the live transpose if you change key.

Yes — the tempo control lets you take it as slow as you need while the lyrics still light up in time and the ball keeps you on the beat. Speed it back up once you can sing and play it through.
