E F#m (x4) F#m A E F#m
F#m A add4
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
E F#m
You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
Dmaj7 Amaj7
Tired of laying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain
Dmaj7 Amaj7
You are young and life is long, and there is time to kill today
Dmaj7 C#m7
And then one day you find, ten years have got behind you
Bm7 E
No one told you where to run, you missed the starting gun
*Solo* (verse & chorus)
And you run and you run to catch up to the sun, but it's sinking
And racing around, to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught, or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
Bm7 Dm7
The time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say...
