Time Chords & Lyrics - Tyler Childers

[VERSE 1]
[Em]Ticking away the moments that make up the du[G]ll day
[D]Fritter and waste the hours in an offhand w[Em]ay
[Em]Kicking around on a piece of ground in your h[G]ometown
[D]Waiting for someone or something to show you the wa[Em]y

[CHORUS]
[C]Tired of lyin' in the sunshine, [G]stayin' home to watch the rain
[C]You were young and life is long and [G]there was time to kill today
[C]And then you wake to find that, te[Bm]n years have got behind you
[Am]No one told you when to run, y[C]ou missed the startin' gun

[Em] [G] [D] [Em] x2
[C] [G] [C] [G] [C] [Bm] [Am] [C]

[VERSE 2]
[Em]And you run, and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's [G]sinking
[D]Racing around to come up behind you a[Em]gain
[Em]The sun is the same in a relative way, bu[G]t you're older
[D]Shorter of breath, and one day closer to d[Em]eath
[C]Every year is gettin' shorter, n[G]ever seem to find the time
[C]Plans they often come to naught or h[G]alf a page of scribbled lines
[C]Hangin' on in quiet desper[Bm]ation is the English way
[Am]The story's done, the song is over, t[C]hought I'd somethin' more to say

[Em] [G] [D] [Em] x2
