Hourglass Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

BNothing is forever

And good things never F♯mlast

And Elearning in the future

Is based on lessons from theF♯m past

Thought we were GBold in the Fire

And we could not be F♯mburned

Until you lEost your desire

And I melted to F♯mlearn

Pre-chorus

C♯mThought I could Estop you from Bchanging sF♯mhape

C♯mBut two people cEannot believe onB one mans F♯mfaith

Chorus

BAnd your love is was

F♯mAn hourglass

EWhat I thought I’d found

BAnd your love it was

F♯mA promise made

EBut our lock and key

F♯mHeld a broken chain

And C♯mnow when I Esee you

I just Bdon’t unF♯mderstand

AC♯mll that I needed from you Ethen

Has now become all the Btime on my F♯mhands

And as I stood in falsehood

Pre-chorus

That your love, it was...
