riff 1 (x4)]
Don't think you could stop it now
I'd like to see you try somehow
Realize that it puts it all on you
There's nothing you can do
Right now you're sick and tired
(0h2 on -string)
You're feeling sad, you're feeling uninspired
But the clock just won't slow down
(0h2 on -string)
Like it gets its kicks pushing you around, you around
riff 1 (x2)]
riff 1 (x2)]
Maybe in the morning it won't be
Quite as bad as it seems
But the fact that you can't change
(0h2 on -string)
The speed of sound, the rate of age
Is an understatement to
(0h2 on -string)
A state of mind your not used to, used to
(0h2 on -string)
You'd be forever known
As the boy who stopped the world
(0h2 on -string)
And made his own
verse (fingerpick chorus chords lightly)]
Right now you're sick and tired
(0h2 on -string)
You're feeling sad. feeling uninspired
So I pray for you my friend
That you'll fall down, you'll give in
riff 1 (x4)]
You'll give in
