A Bm
"Biding My Time" getting stuck in my mind is a boat to row. (?)
A Bm
Two hours later back in my neighbourhood, where everything just stops.
A Bm
It still looks the same, they remember my name stepped it in for a cup full.
A Bm
There's a big city man, I used to rumble with him back in high school.
D C#m Bm
The slow cruel hands of time
D C#m Bm7
Turn you into molten lava, oh my
A Bm
There's a place on the right, you can stop for a while, look out for a policeman
A Bm
There's no street lamps only free buildings, and one of them's vacant
A Bm
Is taking all day, the pack's feeling heavy and soon the night.
Backwards down the mountain the axel is grinding, pull into the wrong drive.
D C#m Bm
The sky is in the yard,
D C#m Bm7
Stringing cotton candy in the fall.
F#m7 E C#m D
Slow card the hard to fall
F#m7 E C#m D
So long times I don't want it at all
Bm E
I've done this so long
C#m D
Something I ought to know
Bm7 A
So long.
> (A) Bm7 A Bm7 [solo]
A Bm
Finally up, all the pieces disrrupted and the birds fly.
A Bm
Trapped for a moment, the sheriff's department got the wrong guy.
D C#m Bm
The town is revealed the lone,
D C#m Bm7
visible winds... through the fog.
D C#m Bm7
This slow cruel hands of time,
D C#m Bm7
turning you back into a child.
> F#m E C#m D Bm7 Bm7 A ~~ [end]
