INTRO: [E] [F#] [D#m] [E] :
[x2]
VERSE 1: ([C#m] + [B] pattern)
Lying in my bed, I hear the clock tick and think of you.
Caught up in circles; Confusion is nothing new.
[E] Flash-
[F#]-backs,
[D#m] warm
[E] nights.
[E] Almost
[F#] left
[D#m] behind
[E] Suit-
[F#]-case of
[D#m] memo-
[E]-ries;
VERSE 2:
Time after sometimes you picture me; I'm walking too far ahead.
You're calling to me I can't hear what you've said.
Then you say go slow, I fall behind. The second hand unwinds.
CHORUS:
If you're
[F#] lost you can
[F#/A#] look and you
[G#m7] will find me.
[E] Time after
[B] time
If you
[F#] fall I will
[F#/A#] catch you I'll
[G#m7] be waiting.
[E] Time after
[B] time
REPEAT CHORUS:
INSTRUMENTAL: [*R1 x2]
VERSE 3:
After my picture fades and darkness has turned to grey.
Watching through windows, you're wondering if I'm ok.
Secrets stolen from deep inside; The drum beats out of time.
REPEAT CHORUS:
You said go slow I fall behind; The second hand unwinds.
REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]
OUTRO:
[E] Time after
[B] time
[E] Time after
[B] time
[E] Time after
[B] time
