[Verse I]
 
F#m                                        A  Asus4 A
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
E                                        F#m
Fritter and waste the hours in an off-hand way
F#m                                            A Asus4 A
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
E                                             F#m
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
Dmaj7                           Amaj7
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
Dmaj7                           Amaj7
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
Dmaj7                      C#m7
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
Bm7                          E                      F#m
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun!
 
                   Bm7                                                      E                       F#m

F#m                                                     A  Asus4  A
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking.
E                                 F#m
Racing around to come up behind you again
F#m                                                 A  Asus4 A
The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older
E                                        F#m
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
Dmaj7                          Amaj7
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Dmaj7                                Amaj7
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Dmaj7               C#m7
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
   Bm7                                D                Dm          Em (strum up once)
The time is gone, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say.
 
 
                             **(Breathe Reprise)**
 
 
Em       A & Asus4 & A
Em       A & Asus4 & A
 
Em       A & Asus4 & A
Home, home again
Em                    A Asus4 A
I like to be here when I can
Em                    A   Asus4  A
When I come home cold and tired.
Em                            A   Asus4  A
It's good to warm my bones beside the fire
Cmaj7
Far away, across the field
Bm
The tolling of the iron bell
Fmaj7
Calls the faithful to their knees
G            D7#9         D7b9    Bm
To hear the softly spoken magic spell.   **(D7#9 D7b9 and Bm with single strum)

Yes this is really good. Im a novice g player but Im making this sound pretty good. Im not hearing enhancement from the A7 though. Ive tried it both ways and I think I like the straight A best. Thank you for your effort. There's a few other renditions floating around on this board, but this is really good.
