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