[Verse]
E C
You're running out, your heavy heart, I hope it slows you down
C E F E
I'll be your gravity and pull you to the ground
E C
You're running out of solid ground, I'll be that tectonic plate
C G F
That shifts and brings your head back to this place
[Pre-Chorus]
E F
Everybody does their time on the fault line
E G
For now let's keep our feet on the same side
[Chorus]
C E
Be the nine and I'll be the three
F C
On a clock that lies over a map of this country
Am G F
There's some things that time can't change, oh
[Instrumental]

So leave a piece of yourself

And take something back too, back too

There's some things that just can't change

Am E G
Father Time is a blurred bird in disguise
C F C
Who made his way to my shoulder
C F C
It's weighing me down, it makes me grow older

I wish it would all just stop
G F
I put my all into destroying his nest
C F E
It's weighing me down, it makes us grow older
[Instrumental]

Everybody does their time on the fault line
