♫ Verse :

E MajorE           G+G
You turn the hourglass round and round
  E MajorE
Pretending that your
       G+G
world’s still safe and sound
  C majorC               C# minorC#m
You smile, your back’s against the wall
    C majorC
And you try so hard to turn a
D MajorD
blind eye to it all

They say a little rain has got to fall

But there must be something more

It’s slipping through your hands
E/G#      G+G
Feel it in your fingertips
D MajorD         E MajorE
This could be the end
  E/G#      G+G
And waiting for the dawn
D MajorD        E MajorE
Won’t clear your sight
E/G#         G+G
Breaking clocks won’t change a thing
D MajorD         E MajorE    E/G# G+G D MajorD E MajorE
And it won’t stop time go by

Don’t you think it’s time to
     C majorC
pull the trigger

To break the cycle
C# minorC#m
turn it all around
             C majorC
I hear it ticking but I’m helpless
           A augmentedA
The sands are finally running out

To break the cycle, turn it all around
