{st:Pink Floyd}

[F#m] Ticking away the moments that make up the [A] dull day,
[E] Fritter and waste the hours in an off-hand [F#m]  way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your [A]  home town
[E] Waiting for someone or something to show you the [F#m] way

[Dm7] Tired of lying in the sunshine,
[Am7] Staying home to watch the rain,
[Dm7] You are young and life is long
[Am7] ??????
[Dm7] And then one day you find [C#m] ten years have got behind you
[Bm] No one told you when to run 
[E] You missed the starting [E7] gun

And you [F#m] run, you catch up with the sun - but it's [A] sinking
[E] Racing around to come up behind you [F#m] again
The sun is the same in a relative way but your [A]  older
[E] Shorter of breath and one day closer to [F#m] death

[Dm7] Every year is getting shorter
[Am7] Never seem to find the time
[Dm7] Plans that either come to naught
[Am7] Or half a page of scribbled lines
[Dm7] Hanging on in quiet despe-[C#m]-ration is the English way 
The [Bm] time is gone the song is over
[Bm7] thought I'd something more to say.[F]

Verse;

	I just put the chords in for the verse. You'll have to listen to the
album to get the rythem. I also put the leads at the bottom. Just put the 
appropriate lead in at the letter.



F#M                                       A            Asus4   A
Ticking away, the moments that make up a dull day
                                                             lead A
E                                                  F#m
You fritter and wasste the hours in an offhand way
                                                              lead B
                                             A           
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town

E                                                   F#m
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way.


Dmaj7                           Amaj7
Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain,
Dmaj7                           Amaj7
You are young, and life is long, and there is time to kill today,
Dmaj7                       C#m7
And then one day you find, ten years have got behind you
Bm7                           E
No one told you where to run, you missed the starting gun.


[insert solo]
                                                                       lead c
(E)    F#m                                                    A
And you run, and you run to catch up to the sun, but it's sinking,

E                                              F#m              lead D
And racing around, to come up behind you again
                                                                 lead E
E                                                  A        Asus4   A
The sun is the same in a relative way, but your older,

E                                              F#m
Shorter of breath, and one day closer to death.

Dmaj7                           Amaj7
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Dmaj7                            Amaj7
Plans that either come to naught, or half a page of scribbled lines
Dmaj7                           C#m
Hanging on in quite desperation is the english way, 
Bm                                           Bm7         F
The time is gone, the song is over thought I'd something more to say.

[F#m]        [A]        [E]         

[F#m]Ticking away the moments that make up [A]a dull day
You fr[E]itter and waste the hours in and off handw[F#m]ay
[F#m]Kicking around on a piece of ground in your homet[A]own
Wai[E]ting for someone or something to show you the w[F#m]ay

T[D9]ired of lying in the sunshine
St[A9]aying home to watch the rain
[D9]You are young and life is long
Th[A9]ere is time to kill to[A]day
And t[D9]hen one day you find
Ten y[C#m7]ears have got behind you
No o[Bm7]ne told you when to run
You mi[E]ssed the starting gun[F#m]              [A]                [E]

[F#m]And you run you run to catch up with the sun but it's s[A]inking
Ra[E]cing around to come up behind you aga[F#m]in
[F#m]The sun is the same in the relative way but you're ol[A]der
Shor[E]ter of breath and one day closer to [F#m]death

Eve[D9]ry year is getting shorter 
Ne[A9]ver seem to find the time

Or [A9]half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging[D9] on in quiet despera[C#m7]tion

My ti[Bm7]me has gone my song is over
Thou[Bm]ght I'd someth[F/C]ing more to say[Em]
