Accordi Time

FA#m
Ticking away the moments
               
LA
that make up a dull day
MI
fritter and waste the hours
               
FA#m
in an off hand way

Kicking around on a piece
                  
LA
of groundin' your hometown
MI
waiting for someone or something
                
FA#m
to show you the way
RE7+
Tired of lying in the sunshine
LA7+/9
staying home to watch the rain
RE7+
you are young and life is long
    
LA7+/9
and there is time to kill today
RE7+
  And then one day, you find
DO#m7
  ten years have got behind you
SIm7
No one told you when to run...
MI
  You missed the starting gun

FA#m
Run and you run to catch up with the Sun
         
LA
but it's sinking
MI
racing around to come up
            
FA#m
behind you again

The Sun is the same in a relative way
           
LA
but you're older
MI
shorter of breath
                      
FA#m
and one day closer to death
RE7+
Every year is getting shorter
LA7+/9
never seem to find the time
RE7+
Plans that either come to naught
   
LA7+/9
or half a page of scribbled lines
RE7+
Hanging on
              
DO#m7
in quiet desperation is the English way
