Selection chords: Sarah Harris

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

Chorus:
Dmaj7                           Amaj7
Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying
home to watch the rain
Dmaj7
You are young and life is long, and
Amaj7
there is time to kill today
Dmaj7                          C#m7
     And then one day you find,   ten
years have got behind you
Bm7                           E
No one told you when to run ... You
missed the starting gun

F#m A E F#m x4
Dmaj7 Amaj7 Dmaj7 Amaj7 Dmaj7 C#m7
Bm7 E

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

Dmaj7                          Amaj7
Every year is getting shorter, never
seem to find the time.
Dmaj7
Plans that either come to naught, or
Amaj7
half a page of scribbled lines.
Dmaj7                     C#m7
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the
English way.
    Bm7
The time is gone, the song is over.
Bm7                   E
Thought Iʼd something more to say.

Em7 A Em7 A

Verse:
Em7           A
 Home, home again
Em7                      A
I like to be here when I can
Em7                         A
 When I come home, cold and tired
Em7                                  A
Itʼs good to warm my bones beside the
fire
Cmaj7
Far away, across the field
Bm7
Tolling on the iron bell
F    
Calls the faithful to their knees
G                  D7         Bm7
To hear the softly spoken magic spell
