[Em][D][C][Bm][Am][G][D][C][Bm]
[Em][C]

[Verse 1]
He lays [Bm]alone
cries on his [Am]own
For ho[G]rizons that [D]he'll never [C]reach
And all of those [Bm]dreams are washed
[Em]on t[D]he b[Em]each

[Verse 2]
[C]
She's drowning in [Bm]oceans
of shackled emo[Am]tions
Going [G]round [D]and around in her [C]head
While out on [Bm]the streets [Em]people forget
[Bm]That it's

[Verse 3]
[C]love you [Em]want
Love you [D]want
[C]Love you want
[D]

[Verse 4]
[C]
She speaks of hop[Bm]ing,
he speaks of fight[Am]ing
[G]And tells her that [D]they
will come [C]through
'Cause he wants [Bm]to feel the shock
[Em]of the new
[D][Bm][D]

[Verse 5]
[C]
People that hurt [Bm]you and t[Am]hey burn you
With [G]acid the falls that [D]falls [C]from the sky
And out of the si[Bm]lence
your voice [Em]says why?
[Bm]If it's

[Verse 6]
[C]love you [Em]want
Love you [D]want
[C]Love you want
[D]

[Verse 7]
[Em]
It's a matter [Bm]of time, a matter of [C]time
But you're asking [G]why, oh,
[D]life makes you [Em]cry?
Turn moss into [Bm]roses and blood
into [C]wine
[D][Bm]

[Verse 8]
[Em]
It's a matter [Bm]of time, a matter of [C]time
But all of your pas[G]t still plays
[D]on your min[Em]d
And maybe to[Bm]morrow you'll
live [C]by [D]design

It's a matter of time
[Em][D][C][Bm]
[Am][C]

[Verse 9]
This isn't [Bm]giv ing this isn't livi[Am]ng
Ooh, just [G]days that [D]pull you [C]apart
And tears turn to [Bm]rust that
fall on [Em]still hearts
[D]

[Verse 10]
[C]
So swallow [Bm]your maybes
and cradle [Am]your babies
[G]Tell them that [D]they will come [C]through
Their gonna [Bm]feel the shock
[Em]of the new

[Verse 11]
And if it's [C]love you [Em]want
Love you [D]want
[C]Love you want
[D]

[Verse 12]

[Em]
It's a matter [Bm]of time, a matter of [C]time
But all of your pas[G]t still
[D]plays on your [Em]mind
And maybe to[Bm]morrow you'll
live [C]by [D]design
