[Intro]
C Em Em A Bm G E Dm A7 Cm G Dm A7 Cm G [Verse]
Dm A7 Cm G Far, far away out amongst the stars Dm A7 There’s a planet spinning slowly Cm G Em B7 We call it ours any time,
Em C D G
any day G Bb B E Any moment that we bring to life Cmaj7 G Will never fade away [Pre-Chorus]
Em B7 Em D G B7 Em A Oh, oh the moments come and go Em B7 Em C While the memories ebb and flow D Bm C Play again, play again Em B7 Em G Oh, there’s a hill that
B7 Em
we must climb A D B7 Em C Climb toward the mist of time D B7 It’s all in here what
C
we’ve been through [Chorus]
Em Bm Am Em Bm G Down, I’m getting it down G D Sorting it out C D Am C G So everything I care about is held in here Am C G All of those I love inside Am C G Everybody’s playing for time A C G You and I still playing for time [Verse]
Dm A7 Cm Thеre goes the sun back from
G
whеre it came Dm A7 The young move to the center Cm G The mom and dad, the frame Em B7 Em C D G Any space, any time G Bb B E Any moment that we bring to life Cmaj7 G Ridiculous, sublime [Pre-Chorus]
Em B7 Em D G B7 Em A Oh, oh the moments come and go Em B7 Em C While the memories ebb and flow D Bm C Play again, play again Em B7 Em G Oh, there’s a hill that
B7 Em
we must climb A D B7 Em C Climb toward the mist of time D B7 It’s all in here what
C
we’ve been through [Chorus]
Em Bm Am Em Bm G Down, getting it down G D Sorting it out C D Am C So everything I care about G Is held in here Am C All of those I love G Inside Am C G Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh Am C G Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh [Bridge]
Am C G The future shines a sunny day Am C Em Unpacked memories stored away Am C All the while,
G
the clock keeps ticking Am C G You and I still playing for time [Verse]
Em C One by one the voices silenced G D For they know that time will tell Em C It’s time that wears the crown G D And time that rings the bell Em C All cards on the table G D All hands are down [Chorus]
Am C G Everybody’s playing for time Am C G Everyone’s still playing for time [Verse]
Em C Looking for a flicker in the
G D
face of the clock Em C Hidden in the mountain,
G D
in the body of the rock Em C No one seems to notice or to
G D
feel the aftershock [Chorus]
Am C G They’re all too busy playing for time Am C G Everybody’s playing for time Am C G You and I still playing for time
