[Verse 1]
       Gm         Eb        F            Bb       Bb/A
Did it take you a minute to realise that I'm deep in it?
          Gm         Eb     F         Bb         Bb/A
'Cause it feels like hours, I've been stuck here thinking
      Gm                      Eb
I get down, down on my knees, begging, begging, please
F                     Bb     Bb/A    D  N.C.
Every single prayer's wasted in the air (Hey!)


[Chorus]
Gm                     Cm
  It's like the hands of time (Oh-oh)
F                          Bb
  Are putting handcuffs on mine (Oh-oh)
Eb                          Cm
  And nothing about this is holy
          D                      Gm
It's just killing me, killing me slowly
Gm                  Cm
  And I m not ready yet (Oh-oh)
F                       Gm      F
  But I'm running outta breath (Oh-oh)
Eb                  Cm
  And all I can do is watch
       D                 N.C.
'Cause I can't find a way to stop the clock


[Post-Chorus]
Gm  F
Mmm
    Eb
Mmm-mmm (Whoa-oh) mm
Gm  F
Mmm
    Eb
Mmm-mmm (Whoa-oh) mm


[Verse 2]
  Gm        Eb         F          Bb      Bb/A
I hear that long black train it's running outta track
    Gm     Eb         F            Bb     Bb/A
And I'm no coward but right now, I got no powers
    Gm                     Eb
Oh, no more you and me, we all get eulogies
     F                         Bb     Bb/A    D  N.C.
But most of them, I swear, are wasted in the air (Hey!)


[Chorus]
Gm                     Cm
  It's like the hands of time (Oh-oh)
F                          Bb
  Are putting handcuffs on mine (Oh-oh)
Eb                          Cm
  And nothing about this is holy
          D                      Gm
It's just killing me, killing me slowly
Gm                  Cm
  And I m not ready yet (Oh-oh)
F                       Gm      F
  But I'm running outta breath (Oh-oh)
Eb                  Cm
  And all I can do is watch
       D
'Cause I can't find a way


[Bridge]
Cm                     Gm
  I can t find a way to stop the hourglass now (Ooh, ooh)
Bb                        F
  Sand just slips away and life goes way too fast


[Chorus]
Gm                     Cm
  It's like the hands of time (Keep taking away from me)
F                          Bb
  Are putting handcuffs on mine (They'll never set me free)
Eb                          Cm
  And nothing about this is holy
          D                      Gm
It's just killing me, killing me slowly
Gm                  Cm
  And I'm not ready yet (I don't want you to leave)
F                       Gm      F
  But I'm running outta breath (One step ahead of me)
Eb                  Cm
  And all I can do is watch
    D                 N.C.
But I can't find a way to stop the clock
