The Minister Lyrics & Chords By The Move

Played too hard and he died too young
To be certain of earning his (burnt out/word of? ) love
He won a place in history
And his name will live eternally
Lived the life of a movie star
And he waved to the people from a big black car
Down in a book with the greatest names
As a lonely maid cried take (in/the? ) pain
Tell me a story minister
There ain't no time left to lose
Ten man tried in the dead of night
? the great man's final words to right
In a room that was soft and red
The great man spoke outside my head
Tell me a story minister
There ain't no time left to lose
