[Intro]
E A x4
[Verse]
E A E A E
Like a fool I’m reaching out, Lord
A E A
To the hands of time
E A E A
If he knew how you were drowning
E A E A
He’d never toss you a line
[Chorus]
B C#m
If all we have is here and now
A E
Honey, I won’t change a thing
B C#m
All I know is how I feel
A F#m
When you move your snow white hand in mine
A
I’ll never hold the hands of time
[Instrumental]
E A
E A
[Verse]
E A E A
From the moment we are born
E A E A
We’re in the hands of time
E A E A
As drunk on life as death is sober
E A E A
When we say goodbye
[Chorus]
B C#m
Though it hurts to lose a friend
A E
May it help remembering
B C#m
For every door that closes in
A F#m
One will open to the other side
A
Opened by the hands of time
[Bridge]
D E A B
Heaven knows there are days when it flies on by
D E A B
Heaven knows there are days when it drags
E A E
Though it may seem to be on your side
A B Bm A
Turn around, it’s left you high and dry
E A
And that is why
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
E A E A
It’s a fool who reaches out
E A E A
To the hands of time
[Chorus]
B C#m
If all we have is here and now
A E
Honey, I won’t change a thing
B C#m
All I know is how I feel
A F#m
When you move your snow white hand in mine
A
I’ll never hold the hands of time
B C#m
Feel it hands upon the strings
A E
As the music starts to ring
B C#m
in my soul, in my dreams
A F#m
For to help these melodies and rhymes
A E A
Become this song, hands of time
E A
