[Intro]
D/F# Cadd9 x2
[Verse 1]
D/F#Changin' my flight for a week now
D/F#Not a chance of gettin' off the ground
And I Cadd9mighta lost some o' my marbles
Cadd9So I'm checkin' with the lost and found
I'm only D/F#tryin'a' stay ahead of danger
D/F#And the tickin' of the thin red hand
But in a Cadd9half a second I got older
Cadd9It's gettin' harder now to understand
[Chorus]
D/F#Whoa whoa E7time keep runnin'
GGettin' my stopwatch wound
D/F#Whoa whoa E7moon or sunnin'
GDay and night'll both be
GDay and night'll both be
GKeepin' me above the D/F#groundCadd9 D/F# Cadd9
[Verse 2]
Been D/F#wakin' up with my nose in the eggs now
D/F#And I suppose that I could use a shower
But I'll Cadd9never turn the other cheek now
Cadd9I guess the 'tude is gettin' dark and sour
I gotta D/F#man up to what I been thinkin'
D/F#Not a crime to wanna kick it alone
But I have Cadd9come to know what is a real crime
Cadd9To mortify what you don't own
[Chorus]
D/F#Whoa whoa E7time keep runnin'
GGettin' my stopwatch wound
D/F#Whoa whoa E7moon or sunnin'
GDay and night'll both be
GDay and night'll both be
GKeepin' me above the D/F#groundCadd9 D/F# Cadd9
