G 
How can we know how far the long way can be 

Funny thing that time, we're always running out 
Em7 
Looking from where we are it never seemed that long to me 

I'm always losing mine, there's not enough of it about 
C7M 
I've many miles behind me maybe not so much ahead 

And though it's always here, it will always come and go 
G 
Seems I made good time with the directions I misread 

The days become the years that'll be gone before you know (Go to 2ND CHORUS)
