st Fret
verse 1
C Am
The outline's drawn, only colour's left to fade,
F G
We need to fix the frame, to hang it on the wall again.
C Am
The corner's torn and the blacks are turning grey,
F G
All the shading's rubbed away and the canvas slowly frays.
Bridge:
F G Em Am G
Too much time, wasted fighting.
F G Em Am G
All this time, we've been sliding...
F G Em Am F G
Backwards, backwards, back.
F
We got time tonight,
Em
Set the hands on fire,
Am
Watch the room ignite,
G
Spend the night just killing time.
F
Don't decide tonight,
Em
We'll just start a fire,
Am
Watch it light the sky,
G
Just spend the night killing time.
verse 2: (Same chords as verse 1)
Every brush has got a broken end,
For all the time it's spent, I'm done with trying to mend.
Amongst the dust I search to find a pen,
Don't wanna start it all again, just wanna make what we intend.
Bridge:
F G Em Am G
Too much time, wasted fighting.
F G Em Am G
All this time, we've been sliding...
F G Em Am F G
Backwards, backwards, back.
Chorus:
