[Verses] 1:35
Am Am7add11 Am Fadd#11
Time slips away
Am Am7add11 Am Fadd#11
And the light begins to fade
Am Am7add11 Am Fadd#11
And everything is quiet now
| Am Am7add11 Am | Fadd#11 |
Am Am7add11 Am Fadd#11
Feeling is gone
Am Am7add11 Am Fadd#11
And the picture disappears
Am Am7add11 Am Fadd#11
And everything is cold now
| Am Am7add11 Am | Fadd#11 |
Am Am7add11 Am Fadd#11
The dream had to end
Am Am7add11 Am Fadd#11
The wish never came true
Am Am7add11 Am Fadd#11
And the girl starts
Am Am7add11 Am Fadd#11
to sing
| Am Am7add11 Am | Fadd#11 |
Am Am7add11 Am Fadd#11
Seventeen seconds
Am Am7add11 Am Fadd#11
A measure of life
Am Am7add11 Am Fadd#11
Seventeen seconds
| Am Am7add11 Am | Fadd#11 |
