Selection chords: Sarah Harris

Verse:
Gm
Ticking away the moments that make up a
  A#
dull day
F
Fritter and waste the hours in an
         Gm
offhand way
Gm
Kicking around on a piece of ground in
     A#
your hometown
F
Waiting for someone or something to show
          Gm
 you the way

Chorus:
D#maj7                           A#maj7
Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying
home to watch the rain
D#maj7
You are young and life is long, and
A#maj7
there is time to kill today
D#maj7                          Dm7
     And then one day you find,   ten
years have got behind you
Cm7                           F
No one told you when to run ... You
missed the starting gun

Gm A# F Gm x4
D#maj7 A#maj7 D#maj7 A#maj7 D#maj7 Dm7
Cm7 F

Verse:
         Gm
And you run and you run to catch up with
                    A#
 the Sun, but itʼs sinking;
F
Racing around to come up behind you
  Gm
again.
    Gm
The Sun is the same in a relative way,
            A#
but youʼre older,
F
shorter of breath, and one day closer to
  Gm
 death.

D#maj7                          A#maj7
Every year is getting shorter, never
seem to find the time.
D#maj7
Plans that either come to naught, or
A#maj7
half a page of scribbled lines.
D#maj7                     Dm7
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the
English way.
    Cm7
The time is gone, the song is over.
Cm7                   F
Thought Iʼd something more to say.

Fm7 A# Fm7 A#

Verse:
Fm7           A#
 Home, home again
Fm7                      A#
I like to be here when I can
Fm7                         A#
 When I come home, cold and tired
Fm7                                  A#
Itʼs good to warm my bones beside the
fire
C#maj7
Far away, across the field
Cm7
Tolling on the iron bell
F#    
Calls the faithful to their knees
G#                  D#7         Cm7
To hear the softly spoken magic spell
