[Intro]
G# A# (x8)
[Verse 1]
G# A# G# A#
Every time still I find
G# A# G# A#
Things don't match up the same
G# A# G# A#
First they do, then they don't
G# A# G# A#
So we try it again
[Chorus]
D# G#
And the hour is close at hand
Cadd9 D#
But I can't even get to you
D# G#
And I hope that you'll understand
Cadd9 D#
So I can get my message through
Cadd9 D#
The hours creeping upon you
[Verse 2]
G# A#
Heads you win
G# A#
Tails you lose
G# A# G# A#
But you don't get to choose
G# A# G# A#
If I could, then I would
G# A# G# A#
But I know that I can't
[Chorus]
D# G#
And the hour is close at hand
Cadd9 D#
But I can't even get to you
D# G#
But I hope that you'll understand
Cadd9 D#
So I can get my message through
Cadd9 D#
The hours creeping upon you
[Instrumental]
G# A# (x8)
[Bridge]
Cm D#
And I'm only living
A# F
Only giving this today
Cm D#
And I feel forgiven
A# F
For giving it all away
Cm A# F
See I live today
Cm A# F
And you live your way
[Verse 3]
G# A#
Take a chance
G# A#
Cast your line
G# A# G# A#
Who knows what you might find
G# A#
With some luck
G# A#
You might hook
G# A# G# A#
What you need from this life
[Chorus]
D# G#
And the hour is close at hand
Cadd9 D#
But I can't even get to you
D# G#
But I hope that you'll understand
Cadd9 D#
So I can get my message through
Cadd9 D#
The hours creeping upon you
[Outro]
Cadd9 D#
The hours creeping upon you
Cadd9 D#
The hours creeping upon you
Cadd9 D#
The hours creeping upon you
Cadd9 D#
The hours creeping upon you
Cadd9 D#
The hours creeping upon you
Cadd9 D#
The hours creeping upon you
Cadd9 D#
The hours creeping upon you
Cadd9 D#
The hours creeping upon me
