C#            G#
Time has told me
C#                 G#   G#7
You're a rare rare find
G#7        C#  A#m
A troubled cure
A#m            D#   C#
For a troubled mind
C#           G#
And time has told me
C#             G#
Not to ask for more
G#7         C#   A#m
Someday our ocean
A#m             D#
Will find it's shore
C                               B
So I'll leave the ways that are making me be
E                   A#
What I really don't want to be
C                       B
Leave the ways that are making me love
E                   A#       D#  C#
What I really don't want to love.
C#            G#
Time has told me
C#                     G#
That you came with the dawn
G#7            C#     A#m
A soul with no footprint
A#m            D#   C#
A rose with no thorn
                G#
Your tears they tell me
C#                G#  G#7            C#   A#m
There's really no way of ending your troubles
A#m                 D#  C#
With things you can say
              G#       C#            G#    G#7
And time will tell you to stay by my side
              C#     A#m                     D#
And I keep on trying 'til there's no more to hide.
C                          B
So leave the ways that are making you be
E                     A#
What you really don't want to be
C                       B
Leave the ways that are making you love
E                     A#      D#   C#
What you really don't want to love.
C#       G#      C#                 G#  G#7
Time has told me you're a rare rare find
           C#   A#m            D#   C#
A troubled cure for a troubled mind
             G#
And time has told me
C#             G#    G#7
Not to ask for more
                  C#    A#m            D#  C#   G#
Well some day our ocean will find its shore
