Elton John – Hourglass (Guitar)

G                                 Em
I'm just sitting counting all the cobwebs

    Am                               D
And wondering just when you'll come along

    F                                Em
You said that you'd be here an hour ago

       Am                    D
But an hour ago is hours ago from then

G   A     C                  G
No, and I don't know what to do

    C                            G
I'm drawing crazy patterns on my shoe

        C           G         Am       D  C
And the sand in the hourglass slips on by

G                        Em
Light another cigarette, watch the burning glow

         Am                      C             D
Catching spiders in my hand, and then I let it go

F                             Em
Imagine pictures on the wall, watch the insects where they crawl

Am                                 D
They don't care about you and I've nothing to do

G   A     C                  G
No, and I don't know what to do

    C                            G
I'm drawing crazy patterns on my shoe

        C           G         Am       D  D7
And the sand in the hourglass slips on by

G                    Em
Maybe the bus didn't get there on time

F                       G                    Em
Maybe the train doesn't run on that line for some reason

        G         C
And she might not come

  G                                  D
Because she doesn't want to see you again

F     C                 G
No no no, that can't be true

A                       D
And I've got nothing to do

G   A        C          G
No, I've got nothing to do

    C                            G
I'm drawing crazy patterns on my shoe

        C           G         Am    C  D
And the sand in the hourglass slips on by
