Stop the Clock

Intro: [Gm]Mmm [F]

[Eb]Mmm-mmm (Whoa-oh) mm

[Gm]Mmm [F]

[Eb]Mmm-mmm (Whoa-oh)

Did it [Gm]take you a [Eb]minute to [F]realise that [Bb]I'm deep [Bb/A]in it?

'Cause it [Gm]feels like [Eb]hours, [F]I've been [Bb]stuck here [Bb/A]thinking

I get [Gm]down, down on my knees, [Eb]begging, begging, please

[F]Every single prayer's [Bb]wasted [Bb/A]in the [D]air (Hey!)

 

[Gm]It's like the hands [Cm]of time (Oh-oh)

[F]Are putting handcuffs on [Bb]mine (Oh-oh)

[Eb]And nothing about this is [Cm]holy

It's just [D]killing me, killing me [Gm]slowly

[Gm]And I m not ready [Cm]yet (Oh-oh)

[F]But I'm running outta [Gm]breath [F](Oh-oh)

[Eb]And all I can do [Cm]is watch

'Cause [D]I can't find a way to stop the clock

 

[Gm]Mmm [F]

[Eb]Mmm-mmm (Whoa-oh) mm

[Gm]Mmm [F]

[Eb]Mmm-mmm (Whoa-oh) mm

 

I [Gm]hear that [Eb]long black [F]train it's [Bb]running [Bb/A]outta track

And [Gm]I'm no [Eb]coward but [F]right now, I [Bb]got no [Bb/A]powers

Oh, [Gm]no more you and me, we [Eb]all get eulogies

But [F]most of them, I swear, are [Bb]wasted [Bb/A]in the [D]air (Hey!)

 

[Gm]It's like the hands [Cm]of time (Oh-oh)

[F]Are putting handcuffs on [Bb]mine (Oh-oh)

[Eb]And nothing about this is [Cm]holy

It's just [D]killing me, killing me [Gm]slowly

[Gm]And I m not ready [Cm]yet (Oh-oh)

[F]But I'm running outta [Gm]breath [F](Oh-oh)

[Eb]And all I can do [Cm]is watch

'Cause [D]I can't find a way

 

[Cm]I can t find a way to [Gm]stop the hourglass now (Ooh, ooh)

[Bb]Sand just slips away and [F]life goes way too fast

 

[Gm]It's like the hands [Cm]of time (Keep taking away from me)

[F]Are putting handcuffs on [Bb]mine (They'll never set me free)

[Eb]And nothing about this is [Cm]holy

It's just [D]killing me, killing me [Gm]slowly

[Gm]And I'm not ready [Cm]yet (I don't want you to leave)

[F]But I'm running outta [Gm]breath [F](One step ahead of me)

[Eb]And all I can do [Cm]is watch

But [D]I can't find a way to stop the clock
