Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[C]I can feel the t[Csus4]urning of the ti[C]des
Pulling away [Csus4]the night
[C]Like a sheet from [G]over me

[Verse 2]
In [C]summer time
I dis[Csus4]solve to a b[C]each
And [Csus4]everywhere [C]seems to be
Just a flicker on a [G]silent screen

[Verse 3]
Because [C]I
I can't stay long
Let the sky roll on
Just a flicker and the crowd [G]moves on

[Verse 4]
In [C]winter
Over[Csus4]coats clo[C]se in
And the snow tastes of tin
On the steps of any [G]station

[Verse 5]
[C]I'd like to glide in the long green light
Of [Csus4]a July af[C]ternoon
Sliding down a [G]vague conversation

[Verse 6]
Because [C]I
I can't stay long
When the moment comes
Just a glance and the glance
[G]is gone

[Interlude 1]
[C][G]

[Verse 7]
Watch [G]closely[C][F]
As a man with a [C]hat[F]
And a girl with [C]a map
[F]Synchronise with the[G] track
And they go away
[C]I need to drift

[Verse 8]
through all the walls
And let the scenery dissolve
Into some other [G]life

[Verse 9]
Because [C]I
I can't stay long
Let the sky roll on
Just a glance and the [G]glance is gone

[Verse 10]
[C]I
I can't stay long
When the right time comes

[Outro 1]
I'll dissolve
[C][G][C]
[G][C]
[G][C]
[G][C]
[G][C]
[G][C]
