Verse 1:
              D
In and out of focus
               D6
Moments that I keep
                  Dmaj7
Something for the pain
                   D6
And something so I sleep
          Gmaj7
Won’t you comfort me?
         Gmaj7
Warm the air that I breathe
            D
Visceral in doses
              D6
Hiding in the seams
                Dmaj7                  D6
Standing on the sun and I don’t feel a thing
          Gmaj7
Won’t you comfort me?
         Gmaj7
Take the fear I don’t need
 
Chorus:
  A                           A6
I wake every morning with the years ticking by
    Bm7                               Gmaj7
I’m missing all these memories, maybe they were never mine
  A
I feel the walls are closing
 
I’m running out of the time
  Bm                            G
I think I missed the gun at the starting line
 
Instrumental: D G
 
Verse 2:
              D
Tell me, am I broken?
            D6
I can never leave
             Dmaj7
Biting on my tongue and
               D6
Checking if it bleeds
      Gmaj7
Is it lost on me?
        Gmaj7
All the things I believe
                  D
Something like an omen
            D6
I can never keep
              Dmaj7             D6
Moving on and on, so very bittersweet
      Gmaj7
Is it lost on me?
        Gmaj7
All the things I don’t need
 
Chorus:
  A                           A6
I wake every morning with the years ticking by
    Bm7                               Gmaj7
I’m missing all these memories, maybe they were never mine
  A
I feel the walls are closing
 
I’m running out of the time
  Bm                            G
I think I missed the gun at the starting line
