[Intro]
Hit the bass note then the rest of the chord
 
A   F#m   E   D  x2
 
[Verse 1]
A
   It's coming round again
F#m
   The slowly creeping hand
E
   Of time and its command
D
   Soon enough it comes
A
   and settles in its place
F#m
   Its shadow in my face
E                         D   Dm
   Puts pressure in my day
 
[Chorus]
A      E               F#m                    D      E
  This life, well it's slipping right through  my hands
A       E               F#m            D     E
  These days turned out nothing like I   had planned
 
[Verse 2]
A
   It's coming round again
F#m
   The slowly creeping hand
E                      D
   Of time and its command
A
   Settles in its place
F#m
   Its shadow in my face
E                        D
   Puts pressure in my day
               A                    F#m
Soon enough it comes, here it is again
                    E                        D
The slowly creeping hand of time and its command
               A                       F#m
Soon enough it comes, settles in its place
                  E                   D     Dm
Its shadow in my face, undigified and lame
 
[Chorus]
A      E               F#m                   D    E
  This life, well it's slipping right through  my hands
A       E               F#m            D      E
  These days turned out nothing like I   had planned
A    E               F#m                    D    E
  Control, well it's slipping right through  my hands
A       E               F#m            D      E       E7
  These days turned out nothing like I   had planned
 
[Solo]
Bm D A   E    x2
     ooh ooh
Bm  D              A       E
    Soon enough it comes
Bm  D              A
    Soon enough it comes
   E        D    Dm
To tie us down.....

  This life, well it's slipping right through  my hands

Great song indeed.. Original has more to say in 2nd verse however. After: Its shadow in my face Undignified and lame (Dm) Soon enough it comes Here it is again The slowly creeping hand Of time and its command Soon enough it comes And settles in its place Its shadow in my face Undignified and lame Dm Same chord progression, put present last line (Dm) to new last line
