[Intro - BPM 120] [Verse 1] [F#m] Ticking away the moments that make up a [A] dull day [E] Fritter and waste the hours in an offhand [F#m] way [F#m] Kicking around on a piece of ground in your [A] hometown [E] Waiting for someone or something to show you the [F#m] way

(run - low E - 4 2 0) [E] You missed the starting gun

[Dmaj7] Hanging on in quiet desper [C#m7] ation is the English way. The [Bm] time is gone, the song is over. [Bm7] Thought I'd something [F] more to say.
