[Verse 1]
AUnfolding to behold, not to behaDve
DShadows in the Ecave, Aphantoms from the fire
AAnd though I try to hold what can't be savDed
DI am the Eslave, Atime is the master telling me to 
DMeasure miEles and mark my Adays
AFeel each moment slip away, Dfeel each Emoment slip awaAy
Straight through our Efingers
AThough we feel it go away faster
DIt come, it come, it comEe
ASo no fearing runnin' out, it Dnever can be donEe
[Chorus]
ATime is the master, ooo Dooo oooE  
ATime is the master, ooo Dooo oooE  
[Verse 2]
ASo oh we rise and fall upon its waDy
DFrom cradle to the Egrave, from Abefore to after
AAnd no we never know what we have nameDd
DI think that we have Etamed, Atime is the master
AThough we feel it go away faster
DIt come, it come, it comEe
ASo no fearing runnin' out, it Dnever can be donEe
[Chorus]
ATime is the master, ooo Dooo oooE  
ATime is the master, ooo Dooo oooE  
   A     D     E   Abhammer on A  
[Chorus]
ooo Dooo oooE,    ATime is the master, ooo Dooo oooE  
ATime is the master, ooo Dooo oooE  
Telling me to
DMeasure miEles and mark my Adays
AFeel each moment slip away, Dfeel each Emoment slip awaAy
Straight through our Efingers
AThough we feel it go away faster
DIt come, it come, it comEe
ASo no fearing runnin' out, it Dnever can be donEe
