Two hours later I’m back in my neighborhood where everything just stopped
A                                                          Bm
It still looks the same they remember my name stepping in for a cupful
A                                                         Bm

The slow cruel hands of time

Turn you into molten lava oh my

A                                                      Bm
A place on the right you can stop for awhile, look out for the policeman
A                                                      Bm
There’s no street lamps, only three buildings and one of them’s vacant
A                                                      Bm
It’s taken all day, the pack’s feeling heavy and soon the night
A                                                   Bm
Backwards down the mountain the axle is grinding pulling into the wrong drive
D            C#m      Bm
The sky is in the yard,
D                               C#m   Bm
Stringy cotton candy is the fog

F#m            E      C#m      D
The slow climb, the hard fall
F#m   E         C#m                  D
Sometime’s I don’t want it at all
F#m                      E            C#m             D
I’ve done this so long, it’s something I ought to know
Bm   A
So long

Finally up, all the peace is disrupted and the birds fly
A                                                       Bm
Trapped for a moment, the sheriff’s department got the wrong guy
D              C#m     Bm
The town’s revealed below
D              C#m         Bm
Visible wind through the fog
D              C#m       Bm
The slow cruel hands of time

Turning you back into a child
