Standard (EADGBE)

4x2210 (or 4x22xx *1)

Use your ring finger for the G# (4) and your index finger , barred, for the two '2', the

and a notes. You can mute the A string (the first x) with your ringfinger and the other

'x' with your index finger.

If you chose this way to play it, you might want to play the Am/G and Am/F# in that

simplified way. That makes:

Use your middlefinger for the and your thumb for the (2). You

leave your index finger unchanged, like the as shown above.

and death in disgrace can seduce anyone

that needs to believe there’s judgment at hand

or God may be kind and see you like a son, but

time is a lion when you are a lamb

Or God may be kind and see you like a son, but

time is a lion when you are a lamb

The years see the best of intentions and greed

they come without shame, they'll leave you with some

time is a lover and your time is young

Men become old when their hurt becomes need, but

time is a lover and your time is young

Bridge

The sun is a soldier, out crawling the hills

setting fire to every house that’s in view

lighting the ruin of my hope and my will

till I’m like a shadow and I’m falling on you,

crawling on you..

Oh you know how I do.. (repeat intro)

So sleep here with me and I’ll keep you close

for now while i try to live up to you

You can’t see the challenge of this I suppose, but

time is a dare and I’m trying to

You can’t see the challenge of this I suppose, but

time is a dare and I’m trying to

(repeat chorus chords for the last lines)

time is a dare and I’m trying to ( 3x )
