    C        Em        F        C
Oh, hands of time that steal my days
            Em           F
And turn my gaze towards night
 Am          Em    F        C
Against your final backdrop plays
          G     F     Am  Em  F
The story of my life

Verse:
     C         Em     F      C
Your fractured vessel I’ve become
          Em       F
My broken heart of tin
  Am       Em      F        C
A grain of sand in rain and sun
             G      F
At the mercy of the wind

Chorus:

I’m your unworthy instrument
               G     F
Come strike my final tones
    C         Em      F   C
And blow your horn magnificent
                    G     F      Am  Em  F
Through the hollows of my bones

Verse:
     C     Em      F      C
I’ll never be your chosen one
         Em       F
To rise above the din
    Am      Em     F           C
For all the good I should have done
             G     F
And all I’ve never been

Chorus:
    Am     Em     F     C
I’m your unworthy instrument
               G     F
Come strike my final tones
    C         Em      F   C
And blow your horn magnificent

Through the hollows of my bones
