F#m A
Ticking away the moments that make a dull day
E F#m
You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way
F#m A
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
E F#m
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
D7 A
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
D7 A
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
D7 C#m
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
Bm E
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
F#m A E F#m A E
F#m
A
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking
E F#m
And racing around to come up behind you again
F#m A
The sun is the same in the relative way but you're older
E F#m
And shorter of breath and one day closer to death
D7 A
Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time
D7 A
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
D7 C#m
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
E Bm E
The time is gone the song is over thought I'd something more to say
