Verse 1:
G                C
Memories flicker day by day
Em                D
Hour by hour, and minute by minute
G            C
Every second passing by
   Em                  D
Is like a lifetime without you in it
G                C
Yesteryear, when you were mine
    Em                   D
Our love breezed by in a twinkled eye
G                   C
A blink between our first hello
Em      D        G
And our last goodbye

Chorus:
C
Slowly sifting through my hands
G
Falling like grains of sand
    Am        Em             C       D
The hourglass of our past is finally empty
C
And there ain't no way of knowing
G
Where all this time's a-going
C                Em
Sifting away somewhere between
  Am                   D          G
A flickering dream and fading memories
 
 
[Interlude]
C Em D G
 
 
Verse 2:
G             C                Em
Remember when we were lying in bed at night
     D
Your hand in mine
G                    C
Laughing through the rain and lightning
     Em               D
That took out all the power lines?
G                 C
When worries of a simple kind
    Em                 D
And easy times weren't hard to find
G                C
Forgiving and forgetting you
    Em    D     G
Was never on my mind
 
 
Chorus:
C
Slowly sifting through my hands
G
Falling like grains of sand
    Am        Em             C       D
The hourglass of our past is finally empty
C
And there ain't no way of knowing
G
Where all this time's a-going
C                Em
Sifting away somewhere between
  Am                   D          G    C  Em
A flickering dream and fading memories
 
 
Outro:
  D                  G      C  Em D G
A flickering, fading dream
