[Intro] Am C F Em [Verse 1]
Am         C               F
  Are you telling me it's over

   G            Am                F            C   D
Disintegrating, lost, and there's nothing I can do?

Am            F           G
  Before you drop another verbal bomb

D            Am                 F           Am
Can I arm myself with Cezanne's 16 shades of blue?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
F      G               C            G
As my heart is slowly ripping into pieces

      Am               G           F      G
Disconnecting from the circuits of my mind

            C      G      F  G    F    G
"You'll get over it," you say, "in time"

   Dm
In time?
[Chorus]
C       G          Am   G
If the clocks are black

  F         Em    D
Absorbing everything but

C    G    Am   G
A remembering

 F               Em
How we made it that

             Am     F    Em
Clocks are black
[Verse 2]
Am              C          F          Em
  You say, "Get over it if 50 is the new black

   Am             F          Em      D
Hooray this could be your lucky day"

Am        C               F
  But my cables they are surging

       Em         Am     F           A    Am
Almost over- overloading as you disen-gage
[Pre-Chorus 2]
F           G               C            G
Could your heart be slowly ripping into pieces

      Am               G             F      G
Disconnecting from the circuits of your mind

            C      G      F  G    F    G
"We’ll get over it," you say, "in time"

   D
In time
[Chorus]
C       G          Am   G
If the clocks are black

  F         Em    D
Absorbing everything but

C    G    Am   G
A remembering

 F               Em
How we made it that

             Am     E
Clocks are black
[Bridge]
C       G      Am     G
"That's it you're done

 F
You've screwed up your life"

 Em             F
Before you've begun

C          Dm      C    F
There are those who say

                    Em
I am now too old to play
[Verse 3]
Am          G        F                   E
  See over there at 33 she fears she'll lose her job

  Am                   F               Em    G
Because they hear the ticking of her clock

Am        A           F          Em               Am
  At only 15 - I said 15 - they say her future's bleak

                 F             Am
She should have started this at 3
[Pre-Chorus 3]
F      G               C            G
As her heart is slowly ripping into pieces

      Am               G           F      G
Disconnecting from the circuits of my mind

             C      G      F  G    F    G
"She’ll get over it," you say, "in time"

  F    G
In time?

     F G   F    G
Stop Father Time
[Chorus]
C       G          Am   G
If the clocks are black

  F         Em    D
Absorbing everything but

C    G    Am   G
A remembering

 F               Em
How we made it that

             Am
Clocks are black
[Outro]
 Am            F           G
  Before you drop another verbal bomb

D            Am                 F           Am
Can I arm myself with Cezanne's 16 shades of blue?
