[Verse 1]
Em                                          G
Ticking away the moments that make up the dull day
D                                          Em
Fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way
Em                                           G
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your hometown
D                                                  Em
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
[Chorus]
C                               G
Tired of lyin' in the sunshine, stayin' home to watch the rain
C                                   G
You were young and life is long and there was time to kill today
C                                 Bm
And then you wake to find that, ten years have got behind you
Am                            C
No one told you when to run, you missed the startin' gun
EmGDEm

[Verse 2]
Em                                                          G
And you run, and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking
D                                    Em
Racing around to come up behind you again
Em                                       G
The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older
D                                         Em
Shorter of breath, and one day closer to death
C                               G
Every year is gettin' shorter, never seem to find the time
C                                   G
Plans they often come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
C                         Bm
Hangin' on in quiet desperation is the English way
Am                                   C
The story's done, the song is over, thought I'd somethin' more to say
EmGDEm
