Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

The binding of time getting stuck in my mind is a boat to row

Two hours later I’m back in my neighborhood where everything just stopped

It still looks the same they remember my name stepping in for a cupful

There’s a big city man I used to rumble with him back in high school

The slow cruel hands of time

Turn you into molten lava oh my

A place on the right you can stop for awhile, look out for the policeman

There’s no street lamps, only three buildings and one of them’s vacant

It’s taken all day, the pack’s feeling heavy and soon the night

Backwards down the mountain the axle is grinding pulling into the wrong drive

The sky is in the yard,

Stringy cotton candy is the fog

The slow climb, the hard fall

Sometime’s I don’t want it at all

I’ve done this so long, it’s something I ought to know

So long

 Instumental Break: (x2)

Finally up, all the peace is disrupted and the birds fly

Trapped for a moment, the sheriff’s department got the wrong guy

The town’s revealed below

Visible wind through the fog

The slow cruel hands of time

Turning you back into a child

 (End on)
