Tick Tock

Verse:
Bm                   G
How do I measure the time in-between?
D    A     Bm
With every passing day
   G
My confidence fades
D    Bm
Tick Tock

             G
You stop the universal clock
D A   Bm
Enter second-guessing
      G        D
Enter regressing

    Em
The shame starts flooding in
  Bm
I went too far
       Em
Reason lost to impulse
        G
Another self-inflicted scar

Chorus:
     Bm
Tick tock
    D                                D
Spiraling ‘round that last circle of hell
Bm      D       G           F#
Waiting on that final death knell
            Em
Within this time bound dance
G
I still long for a chance

Bm    D    G    D
Bm    D    G    F#

Bm                     G             D
An echo of resilience, softly heard
A    Bm             G
Amidst the chaos, a mystical word
D    Bm
Tick tock
                            G
The pendulum swings defying fate
                  Em     G
In the silence, I wait

         Em                    G
It’s all heartache and endless yearning
              E                            F#
Yet with each silent moment, hope is still burning

Waiting on that final death knell

Within this time bound dance
G
I still long for a chance
