[Verse] (Opens without guitar) N.C. It's coming round again N.C. The slowly creeping hand N.C. Of time and its command
                  A
Soon enough it comes

                    F#m
And settles in its place

                    E
Its shadow in my face

                     D     Dm
Puts pressure in my day
[Chorus]
A       E             F#m                   D     E (hold)
  This life well it's slipping right through my hands

A       E               F#m          D     E
  These days turned out nothing like I had planned
[Verse]
A                    F#m
It's coming round again

                      E
The slowly creeping hand

                        D     Dm
Of time and its demandsssss yeah

A                   F#m
It settles in its place

                  E
Its shadow in my face

                   D  Dm
Puts pressure in my day

                A
Soon enough it comes

            F#m
Here it is again

                     E
The slowly creeping hand

                    D
Of time and its command

                 A
Soon enough it comes

                    F#m
And settles in its place

                 E
Its shadow in my face

                  D    Dm
Undignified and lame
[Chorus]
A       E             F#m                   D     E (hold)
  This life well it's slipping right through my hands

A       E               F#m          D     E
  These days turned out nothing like I had planned

A       E             F#m                   D     E (hold)
  Control well it's slipping right through my hands

A       E               F#m          D     E
  These days turned out nothing like I had planned

D     F#m       A       D    F#m          A      E       Bm     D
