Intro:
C D G

Verse 1:
C  D            G
   Rising from
C
  Ashes of my adolescence

Well I guess it's where I'm running from
C   D        G
    To find
                        C
A state of mind where I don't have to climb no higher

I just look at you and me


Chorus:
C  D           G
   Saving time
C
Put your watch away, we'll be just fine
                           D             G
There's a lack of shooting stars to see
                     C
That used to get the best of me

But I swear you get the best in me
           C D         G
When we're saving time
C  D        G
Saving time


Verse 2:
C                    D
Times when I'm away
  G                                      C
I swear I can't stop thinking 'bout you, do you feel the same?

It's dizzy in my brain
C               D            G
  It's like I'm stumbling home again
               C                                     D
And you're the paper to my pain, and I'm writing all about when we were


Chorus:
C  D           G
   Saving time
C
Put your watch away, we'll be just fine
                           D             G
There's a lack of shooting stars to see
                     C
That used to get the best of me

But I swear you get the best in me
          C D         G
And we're saving time
C  D        C D
Saving time


Bridge:
Am        C                         D                      Am
    Can't think of the words to say, have we got it made?
C                    D                         Am
Coming in from every angle, are we gonna cave?
C                       D                        Am
  Blurring all of the lines, you cut it so fine
C                 D
I don't mind, you still own mine when


Chorus:
C D            G
  Saving time
C
Put your watch away, we'll be just fine
                               D        G
There's a lack of shooting stars to see
                       C
That you still get the best of me

But I swear you get the best of me


Outro:
C D          G
Saving time
C
Put your watch away, put your watch away
C   D
  Saving time
          C D           G
No, we're saving time

C D G
