Time Machine
Intro: A C#m A C#m D F#m D E
Verse:
A C#m
It isn't easy watching you fade away
A C#m
To see you growing weaker day by day
D
Your face is so pale
F#m
And your energy's drained
D E
It's hard to admit that soon your life won't remain
I won't accept that there isn't a cure
It must be somewhere and I'll find it I'm sure
If modern science can't provide what you need
Then I'll find the year that will let me succeed
Chorus:
A C#m D
And I'll build a time machine for you
I swear
F#m E A
I'll save your life somehow
C#m
You will stay with me
D
My love
F#m E A
So please don't leave me now
It's complicated trying to build this machine
I'm making something that the world's never seen
But darling I promise that I won't let you down
I swear I won't stop until the remedy's found
A few more rivets and the bolts fastened tight
I think that I might have it ready tonight
So just hang in there, darling try to be strong
I'll find what you need, I won't be gone very long
And I built this time machine for you
I swear
I'll save your life somehow
You will stay with me
My love
So please don't leave me now
So I built this time machine for you
My dear
I didn't let you down
You'll be safe with me
My love
And I'll protect you now...
