[Verse]
(Opens without guitar)
N.C.
Its coming round again
N.C.
The slowly creeping hand
N.C.
Of time and its command
A
Soon enough it comes
F#m
And settles in its place
E
Its shadow in my face
D Dm
Puts pressure in my day
[Chorus]
A E F#m D E (hold)
This life well its slipping right through my hands
A E F#m D E
These days turned out nothing like I had planned
[Verse]
Its coming round again
The slowly creeping hand
Of time and its demands
It settles in its place
Its shadow in my face
Puts pressure in my day
A
Soon enough it comes
F#m
Here it is again
E
The slowly creeping hand
D
Of time and its command
A
Soon enough it comes
F#m
And settles in its place
E
Its shadow in my face
D Dm
Undignified and lame
[Chorus]
A E F#m D E (hold)
This life well its slipping right through my hands
A E F#m D E
These days turned out nothing like I had planned
A E F#m D E (hold)
This life well its slipping right through my hands
A E F#m D E
These days turned out nothing like I had planned
[Solo]
D F#m A E x3
[Bridge]
D F#m A E Bm D
Soon enough it comes to tie us down
Oohhh its coming round again
E D Dm
The slow, the slowly creeping hand
[Chorus]
A E F#m D E (hold)
This life well its slipping right through my hands
A E F#m D E
These days turned out nothing like I had planned
A E F#m D E (hold)
This life well its slipping right through my hands
A E F#m D E
These days turned out nothing like I had planned
[Outro]
A E F#m D E
