F Am G

[Verse 1]
F
 You’re getting better, better
Am
 At guessing letters, letters
G
 I'm writing with my fingers now
F
 And we’re just watching, watching
Am
 Dust on the curtain, curtain
G
 Illuminated, falling down

[Pre-Chorus]
                   F                       Am
Now we've got the doors closed and you're telling me
                  G             Dm
You are mine and you’ll go anywhere with me
                  F                  Am
Tell me, can we stay right here and never leave?
           G
I could go on and on
    N.C.
But time is not on our side

[Chorus]
F
 Waiting for the light
              Am
 Night after night

 Night after night
         G
 And I know

 I will slip away
            Dm
 Day after day

 Day after day
            F
'til we're old

 All I wanna do
                 Am
 Is lie next to you
                            G
 Lie next to you and stay close
      Dm
 But time is not on our side
F
 Looking in your eyes
              Am
 Night after night

 Night after night
        G
 And I see

 Where I gotta stay
            Dm
 Day after day

 Day after day
          F
 To find peace

 All I gotta do
                 Am
 Is lie next to you
                            G
 Lie next to you and just breathe

 But time is not on our side

[Verse 2]
F
 We never wake up, wake up
Am
 We only stay up, stay up
G
 And let the seconds chase us down
F
 But we're learning, learning
Am
 Nothing's certain, certain
G
 So can we stop the clock for now?

[Pre-Chorus]
                   F                       Am
Now we've got the doors closed and you're telling me
                  G             Dm
You are mine and you’ll go anywhere with me
                  F                  Am
Tell me, can we stay right here and never leave?
           G
I could go on and on
    N.C.
But time is not on our side

[Chorus]
F
 Waiting for the light
              Am
 Night after night

 Night after night
         G
 And I know

 I will slip away
            Dm
 Day after day

 Day after day
            F
'til we're old

 All I wanna do
                 Am
 Is lie next to you
                            G
 Lie next to you and stay close
      Dm
 But time is not on our side
F
 Looking in your eyes
              Am
 Night after night

 Night after night
        G
 And I see

 Where I gotta stay
            Dm
 Day after day

 Day after day
          F
 To find peace

 All I gotta do
                 Am
 Is lie next to you
                            G
 Lie next to you and just breathe
                         Dm
 But time is not on our side

[Bridge]
    Am C
Oh no
 G                  Dm  Am
Time is not on our side
               G
And I could go on and on
 N.C.
Time is not on our side

[Chorus]
F
 Waiting for the light
              Am
 Night after night

 Night after night
         G
 And I know

 I will slip away
            Dm
 Day after day

 Day after day
            F
'til we're old

 All I wanna do
                 Am
 Is lie next to you
                            G
 Lie next to you and stay close
      Dm
 But time is not on our side
F
 Looking in your eyes
              Am
 Night after night

 Night after night
        G
 And I see

 Where I gotta stay
            Dm
 Day after day

 Day after day
          F
 To find peace

 All I gotta do
                 Am
 Is lie next to you
                            G
 Lie next to you and just breathe
                         F   Am G
 But time is not on our side

[Outro]
                   N.C.
'Cause time is not on our side
