Hands Of Time

E      A        E        A    E
Like a fool I’m reaching out, Lord
       A         E   A
To the hands of time
E     A        E        A
If he knew how you were drowning
     E     A          E    A
He’d never toss you a line

[Chorus]
B                 C#m
If all we have is here and now
       A       E
Honey, I won’t change a thing
B             C#m
All I know is how I feel
         A                            F#m
When you move your snow white hand in mine
                             A
I’ll never hold the hands of time

[Verse]
E        A      E      A
From the moment we are born
E            A        E    A
We’re in the hands of time
E           A       E        A
As drunk on life as death is sober
E       A       E   A
When we say goodbye

[Chorus]
B                  C#m
Though it hurts to lose a friend
       A      E
May it help remembering
B                   C#m
For every door that closes in
         A                 F#m
One will open to the other side
                       A
Opened by the hands of time

[Bridge]
D                                   E          A   B
Heaven knows there are days when it flies on by
D                                   E          A   B
Heaven knows there are days when it drags
E                  A             E
Though it may seem to be on your side
                  A                 B  Bm  A
Turn around, it’s left you high and dry
            E   A
And that is why

[Instrumental]

[Verse]
E      A        E       A
It’s a fool who reaches out
E      A        E    A
To the hands of time

[Chorus]
B                 C#m
If all we have is here and now
       A       E
Honey, I won’t change a thing
B             C#m
All I know is how I feel
A                                     F#m
When you move your snow white hand in mine
                             A
I’ll never hold the hands of time

B             C#m
Feel it hands upon the strings
       A      E
As the music starts to ring
B           C#m
in my soul, in my dreams
       A                       F#m
For to help these melodies and rhymes
            A              E   A
Become this song, hands of time

E  A
