Dawes – When My Time Comes (Guitar)

           E                                    A
There were moments of dreams, I was offered to save.

        E                                  A
I lived less like a workhorse, more like a slave.

               C#m
I thought that one quick moment that was noble or brave

         A
would be worth the most of my life.

     E                                            A
So I pointed my fingers, and shouted few quotes I knew,

      E                                            A
as if something that's written, should be taken as true.

          C#m
But every path I had taken and conclusion I drew

          A
would put truth back under the knife. 

            F#m                                    B7
And now the only piece of advice that continues to help

                 C#m             B                         A
is anyone that's making anything new only breaks something else. 

[Chorus]
E    A       E       A     C#m   B     A
When my time comes,  ooohh-oohhh-ooohh-ooohhhh

E    A       E       A     C#m   B     A
When my time comes,  ooohh-oohhh-ooohh-ooohhhh

     E                                        A
So I took what I wanted, and put it out of my reach.

            E                                   A
I wanted to pay for my successes, with all my defeats.

       C#m
And if Heaven was all that was promised to me

    A
why don't I pray for a death?

       E                                      A
Now it seems like the unravelling started too soon.

        E                                        A
Now I'm sleeping in hallways and I'm drinking perfume,

        C#m
and I'm speaking to mirrors, and I'm howling at moons,

          A
while the worse and the worse that it gets. 

           F#m                                                    B7
Oh you can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.

             C#m             B                            A
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's starin' right back.

[Chorus]
E    A       E       A     C#m   B     A
When my time comes,  ooohh-oohhh-ooohh-ooohhhh

E    A       E       A     C#m   B     A
When my time comes,  ooohh-oohhh-ooohh-ooohhhh

             F#m                                                    B7
Well you can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.

             C#m             B                            A
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's starin' right back.

[Chorus]
E    A       E       A     C#m   B     A
When my time comes,  ooohh-oohhh-ooohh-ooohhhh

E    A       E       A     C#m   B     A
When my time comes,  ooohh-oohhh-ooohh-ooohhhh

E    A       E       A     C#m   B     A
When my time comes,  ooohh-oohhh-ooohh-ooohhhh
