G#
I'll never forget when we started out
A beat of the drum, a face in the crowd
C#
It's better this way, it's better this way
How far we've come now not a soul can change
G#
Remember the road running under our feet
We'd shoot for the stars but we'd aim at the trees
C#
It's better this way, it's better this way
Gambling with life it was our turn to play
G#
It's time
C#
Only when you look forward can you see behind?
We bought the ticket so we'll take the ride
G#
Every trial and every test
We'd drive to the East and we'd fly to the West
C#
Just running away, just running away
We can be different 'cause they're all the same
G#
Every night that we'd ever start
In every beat of every heart
C#
Is running way, just running away
Catching our breath at the end we could say

It's time
C#
Only when you look forward can you see behind?
G#
Every taste we could get was just sweet sublime
C#
Holding on to the moment we let go alive
We bought the ticket so we'll take the ride
Fm
Day after day in the light
C#
We're glowing in the dark
G#
Standing was the sketch
D#
Where falling wasn't hard
Fm
We lost ourselves to find
C#
We're somewhere down the line
G#
It's time

It's time
G#
For some it's a God, for me it's a fact
C#
We make a mistake and try taking one back
G#
It's better this way, it's better this way
C#
Out of the grind and then into the grave
G#
It's time
C#
Only when you look forward can you see behind?
G#
Every taste we could get was just sweet sublime
C#
Holding on to the moment we let go alive
We bought the ticket so we'll take the ride
We bought the ticket so we'll take the ride G#
