[Intro]
Am C F Em
[Verse 1]
Am C F
Are you telling me it's over
G Am F C D
Disintegrating, lost, and there's nothing I can do?
Am F G
Before you drop another verbal bomb
D Am F Am
Can I arm myself with Cezanne's 16 shades of blue?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
F G C G
As my heart is slowly ripping into pieces
Am G F G
Disconnecting from the circuits of my mind
C G F G F G
"You'll get over it," you say, "in time"
Dm
In time?
[Chorus]
C G Am G
If the clocks are black
F Em D
Absorbing everything but
C G Am G
A remembering
F Em
How we made it that
Am F Em
Clocks are black
[Verse 2]
Am C F Em
You say, "Get over it if 50 is the new black
Am F Em D
Hooray this could be your lucky day"
Am C F
But my cables they are surging
Em Am F A Am
Almost over- overloading as you disen-gage
[Pre-Chorus 2]
F G C G
Could your heart be slowly ripping into pieces
Am G F G
Disconnecting from the circuits of your mind
C G F G F G
"We'll get over it," you say, "in time"
D
In time
[Chorus]
C G Am G
If the clocks are black
F Em D

Absorbing everything but
C G Am G
A remembering
F Em
How we made it that
Am E
Clocks are black
[Bridge]
C G Am G
"That's it you're done
F
You've screwed up your life"
Em F
Before you've begun
C Dm C F
There are those who say
Em
I am now too old to play
[Verse 3]
Am G F E
See over there at 33 she fears she'll lose her job
Am F Em G
Because they hear the ticking of her clock
Am A F Em Am
At only 15 - I said 15 - they say her future's bleak
F Am
She should have started this at 3
[Pre-Chorus 3]
F G C G
As her heart is slowly ripping into pieces
Am G F G
Disconnecting from the circuits of my mind
C G F G F G
"She'll get over it," you say, "in time"
F G
In time?
F G F G
Stop Father Time
[Chorus]
C G Am G
If the clocks are black
F Em D
Absorbing everything but
C G Am G
A remembering
F Em
How we made it that
Am
Clocks are black
[Outro]
Am F G
Before you drop another verbal bomb
D Am F Am
Can I arm myself with Cezanne's 16 shades of blue?
