Intro:

A# Am  F


Verse 1:
A#            Am            F
 Nights like this, only remind me
                           Am          F
That I’ll never be able to Go back in time
             A#
And hold you tightly
A#           Am                F
 Roads like this they just remind me
                          Am
That I’ll never be there again
        F                A#
By your side when I was tiny
A#            Am               F
 When I walk past an old guy smoking
                  Am                F
Puffing it from a pipe it’s almost like
                 A#
It’s you in that moment
A#               Am               F
 And rooms like this with artex ceilings
                        Am            F
All they Do is Go and remind me that I’m
          A#
I’m still healing.

Pre-Chorus:
    F                                    A#
And I can’t stop the years from rolling on


Chorus:
A#            F           Am              A#
 The thing I find about time is it’s impatient
A#               F                  Am             A#
 You close your eyes the speed of life keeps on racing
A#                        F
I can keep a moment in a photograph
    Am                      A#
But all I can really Do is look at that
Fm                              A#
I know ‘til I die that I can’t hold you
                    A#     Am  F
So I hold on to the times


Verse 2:
A#           Am             F
 Suits like this are so uncomfortable
                        Am
The last time I had one on
             F            A#
I held nan’s arm at your funeral
A#                Am                F
 And scotch like this takes me to sixteen
                      Am            F           A#
When Mum came home to find you and I drunk on whiskey


Pre-Chorus:
    F                                    A#
And I can’t stop the years from rolling on


Chorus:
A#            F           Am              A#
 The thing I find about time is it’s impatient
A#               F                  Am             A#
 You close your eyes the speed of life keeps on racing
A#                        F
I can keep a moment in a photograph
    Am                      A#
But all I can really Do is look at that
Fm                              A#
I know ‘til I die that I can’t hold you
                    A#     F  Am  A#   A# F  Am  A#
So I hold on to the times


Outro:
A#                        F
I can keep a moment in a photograph
    Am                      A#
But all I can really Do is look at that
Fm                              A#
I know ‘til I die that I can’t hold you
     N.A#.
So I hold on to the times
