Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

There are lines that we set up

 As you and I become us

 When we start, there is less struggle when theyre crossed.

 But on days already rough

 The lines get close enough to touch

 And the smallest movement sets all the alarms off

 What takes so long to find can easily get lost

Well I cant figure out what to do

Is there still time left to save the afternoon?

Before we say something that isnt true

Is there still time left to save the afternoon?

Ive said things that I regret,

some after days, some after breakfast

 And I know my pride can get the best of me.

 But this is not some massive fire, destroying fields hour by hour

 But it burns me up again when you leave angry

So before you go please listen to my plead.

Well I cant figure out what to do

Is there still time left to save the afternoon?

Before we say something that isnt true

Is there still time left to save the afternoon?

Save us from the silent treatments

Save us from the separate sleepin

 Save us from the thought that this could be the end.

Hope in making the first move

 Catch you thinking that same thing too

 That you crack that smile then we can start again

Lets use tonight to make our amends

Well I can’t figure out what to do

Is there still time left to save the afternoon?

Before we say something that isnt true

Is there still time left to save the afternoon?
