  Bb majorBb                        kinda hard to tab it out really
Not long to go now, no more will we stand      just listen to it and you should
 DmDm                              get the feel for it.
Invincible, sure and superior
    G minorGm
We are fallible weak and inferior
   DmDm
As we slip and we slide down the long mountainside

We’re the debris of a lost human tide

PRE BRIDGE
***********
     DmDm
There`s a feeling I can feel
    G minorGm
As the clockwork clicks around
     F# minorF#m     A7A7
There`s a shadow after me
    Bb majorBb
And it waits without a sound
    DmDm
I`m so tired of standing by
     G minorGm
While the fates design my life
   DmDm      F# minorF#m
They never tell me why
        DmDm
The world must die!

BRIDGE
*******
DmDm                Bb majorBb
Surely there is someone to reach out
DmDm                Bb majorBb
Surely there is someone to reach out
DmDm
Surely there is someone to reach out
Surely there is someone to reach out
-----------------------------------------------------------
CHORUS
*******
  DmDm
As time slips through my fingers
     F minorFm
There`s a void where the hope used to be
  DmDm
As time flows through my fingers
    F minorFm
We see visions that no one should see
     C#C#
And it`s cold
  G# minorG#m
So cold out here
     C#C#
And it`s cold
       DmDm
When there`s so much to fear


-----------------------------------------------------------
CHORUS
*******
  DmDm
As time slips through my fingers
   F minorFm
I am blinded and alone
  DmDm
As time flows through my fingers
   F minorFm
I am haunted by demons I have always known
     C#C#
And it`s cold
  G# minorG#m
So cold out here
     C#C#
And it`s cold
       F minorFm
When there`s so much to fear… so near!

DmDm
