Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Well [Em]don't you know [Am]I need a
[Em]Little indul[D]gence?
[Em]Listen to the [Am]hunter becom[Em]ing
[D]Hunted
[Em]Everyday t[Am]here's
[Em]a million ad[D]vances
[Em]Don't be too force[Am]ful you'll ruin[Em]
Your [D]chances
Well don't [Em]you know [Bm]that time is a
[Am]Broken glass
[G]That splinters against [F#m]the wall?
But the [Em]picture is coming back
Now baby
[F#m]And I want to take it all

[Verse 2]
Don't [Bm]go making all these [D]promises
You [Em]know you cannot [D]keep
[Em]There's a time [Am]to play a king and a
Time to be a thief
Cause if you're [Bm]making all these
[D]Promises you [Em]know you cannot [D]keep
You [Am]know time will be the thief and
Your fallen king end up [G]alone

[Verse 3]
[G]
So let your body [Am]move [Em]a little bit [D]closer
Silent [Em]like [Am]the sound pro
[Em]ceeding a cyc[D]lone
Don't [Em]you [Am]know that
[Em]powerful [D]thinking
Can [Em]be a f[Am]orce you don't w[Em]ant
To relin[D]quish?
Well don't [Em]you know that
[Bm]They say hangi[Am]ng on will justi[G]fy the w[F#m]ait?
But [Em]pa tience and elated wisdom
[F#m]Don't share a common phrase

[Verse 4]
Don't [Bm]go making all these [D]promises
You [Em]know you cannot [D]keep
There's a [Am]time to play a king and a
Time to be a thief
Cause [G]if [Bm]you're making all these
[D]Promises you [Em]know you cannot [D]keep
You [Am]know time will be the thief and
Your fallen king end up [G]alone

[Verse 5]
[C]Well I'm only hanging on for what
[D]Goes down
[C]I'm floating high and my fee[D]t don't
Touch the ground
[C]I'd take advantage but
I [D]can't see
Through this charade
[Bm]So don't you,
[D]don't go [Em]make it [D]harder
That [Am]hell
Cause it [Bm]comes down to
the mak[D]ing
You'd better be [Em]damned sure you can
[D]Take it
[Am]Hey baby

There's [Am]a time to play a king and a
Time to be a thief

And your fallen king will end up...
