[Verse 1]
Dm A7/C# Cm G/B Far, far away out amongst the stars Dm A7/C# There’s a planet spinning slowly Cm G/B Em B7/D# Em Em D/F# G We call it ours any time, any day G F#/A# Bm Em Any moment that we bring to life Cmaj7 G Will never fade away
[Pre-Chorus]
Em B7/D# Em G B7/D# Em Oh, oh the moments come and go A/C# D B7/D# Em C While the memories ebb and flow D Bm C Play again, play again Em B7 Em D/F# G B7/D# Em Oh, there’s a hill that we must climb A/C D B7/D# Em C Climb toward the mist of time D Bm C It’s all in here what we’ve been through
[Chorus]
Em/B A#dim Am Em B7/D# Dm Down, I’m getting it down G B7/F# Sorting it out Em D Am7 C G So everything I care about is held in here Asus2 (or A) C G All of those I love inside Asus2 C G Everybody’s playing for time Asus2 C G You and I still playing for time
[Verse 2]
Dm A7/C# Cm G Thеre goes the sun back from whеre it came Dm A7/C# The young move to the center Cm G The mom and dad, the frame Em B7/D# Em Em D/F# G Any space, any time G F#/A# Bm Em Any moment that we bring to life Cmaj7 G Ridiculous, sublime
[Pre-Chorus]
Em B7/D# Em D/F# G B7/D# Em Oh, oh the moments come and go A/C# D B7/D# Em C While the memories ebb and flow D Bm C Play again, play again Em B7/D# Em D/F# G B7/D# Em Oh, there’s a hill that we must climb A/C# D B7/D# Em C Climb toward the mist of time D Bm C It’s all in here what we’ve been through
[Chorus]
Em/B A#dim Am Em B7/D# Dm Down, getting it down G B7/F# Sorting it out Em D Am C So everything I care about G Is held in here Asus2 C All of those I love G Inside Asus2 C G Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh Asus2 C G Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh
[Bridge]
Asus2 C G The future shines a sunny day Asus2 C Em Unpacked memories stored away Asus2 C G All the while, the clock keeps ticking Asus2 C G You and I still playing for time
[Verse 3]
Em C One by one the voices silenced G D For they know that time will tell Em C It’s time that wears the crown G D And time that rings the bell Em C All cards on the table G D All hands are down
[Chorus]
Am C G Everybody’s playing for time Am C G Everyone’s still playing for time
[Verse 4]
Em C G D Looking for a flicker in the face of the clock Em C G D Hidden in the mountain, in the body of the rock Em C G D No one seems to notice or to feel the aftershock
[Chorus]
Asus2 C G They’re all too busy playing for time Asus2 C G Everybody’s playing for time Asus2 C G You and I still playing for time
