[Intro]
B D#m D C#m C Bm E
[Verse 1]
B D#m
I feel sorrow for the fear
D C#m
And everything it brings
C Bm E
Wonder if it will ever sleep
B D#m
I know you understand
D C#m
Cause you briefly look away
C Bm
Focusing on nothing
E
So now everything is
A
clear
D
Cause there's no one to blame
A
You got no place to hide
D
It's only in your mind
A A#dim7
And I saw you in amazement
Bm E
Stumbling through the day
A A#dim7
You told me time never waits
Bm E
What is that supposed to mean?
[Pre-Chorus]
D
All of life
C#m
Is in one drop of the ocean
Bm
Waiting to go home
A
Just waiting to go home
D
And if the moon
C#m
Can turn the tides it can pull the tears
Bm
and take them from our eyes
A
And make them into monsoons
[Chorus]
And turn them into mon
D C#m
Sooner or later they'll weave their way back to the sea
Bm
Gonna finally be free
A
Yeah, free for awhile
D
Until they break
C#m
Like waves of sorrow always do
Bm
All in due time
A
Cause time never waits
[Verse 2]
B D#m
Daddy don't daydream again
D C#m
Just help me to believe and then
C Bm E
Show me that there's more than the meantime
B D#m
Sonny do you hear the sound?
D C#m
You can feel it when it breaks
C Bm
You will know it when it's gone
E
How else can I ex-
A
plain?
D
Cause there's only the pain
A
Coming straight through
D
Coming to remind
A A#dim7
Crosscut to you in amazement
Bm E
Stumbling through the day
A A#dim7
You told me time never waits
Bm E
That's okay cause I don't wait for time
[Pre-Chorus]
D
All of life
C#m
Is in one drop of the ocean
Bm
Waiting to go home
A
Just waiting to go home
D
And if the moon
C#m
Can turn the tides it can pull the tears
Bm
and take them from our eyes
A
And turn them into monsoons
And make them into mon
D C#m
Sooner or later they'll weave their way back to the sea
Bm
Gonna finally be free
A
Free for awhile
D
Until they break, mmm
C#m
Like waves of sorrow always break
Bm
All in due time
A
Cause time never waits

version 2
B D# / A C#m / G Bm E
I feel sorrow for the fear
And everything it brings
Wonder if it will ever sleep
I know you understand
‘Cause you briefly look away
Focusing on nothing so now everything is clear
A D / A D / A C#m Bm E
‘Cause there’s no one to blame
You got no place to hide
It’s only in your mind
And I saw you in amazement stumbling through the day
You told me time never waits
What is that supposed to mean?
D C#m Bm A
All of life is in one drop of the ocean waiting to go home
Just waiting to go home
And if the moon can turn the tides
It can pull the tears and take ‘em from our eyes
And make ‘em into monsoons
And turn ‘em into monsoon-er or later they’ll weep their way back to the sea
Gonna finally be free
Yeah, free for a while
Until they break like waves of sorrow always do
All in due time
‘Cause time never waits
B D#m / A C#m / G Bm E
Daddy don’t daydream again
Just help me to believe and then
Show me that there’s more than the mean time
Sonny do you hear the sound?
You will feel it when it breaks
You will know it when it’s gone
How else can I explain?
A D / A D / A C#m Bm E
‘Cause it’s only the pain
Coming straight through
Coming to remind
Cross cut to you in amazement stumbling through the day
You tell me time never waits
That’s okay ‘cause I don’t wait for time
D C#m Bm A
When all of life is in one drop of the ocean waiting to go home
Just waiting to go home
And if the moon can turn the tides
It can pull the tears and take ‘em from our eyes
And turn ‘em into monsoons
And make ‘em into monsoon-er or later they’ll weep their way back to the sea
Gonna finally be free
Free for a while
Until they break (mmmm)
Like waves of sorrow always break
All in due time
‘Cause time never waits

B Ebm
Ich trauer um die Angst
A C#m
Und alles was sie mit sich traegt
G Bm E
Waer n Wunder wenn sie je wieder schlief
B Ebm
Ich weiss dass dus verstehst
A C#m
Weil du dich schnell wegdrehst,
G Bm
Einfach in die Luft guckst
E A
Aber jetzt ist alles klar
D
Denn keiner traegt die Schuld
A
Du kannst dich nicht verstecken
D
Nur - in deiner Phantasie
A C#m
Und Ich sah dich - Oh
Bm E
Stolpernd durch den Tag
A C#m
Du meintest, Zeit wartet nie
Bm E
Was soll das denn bitte heissen?
D
Das ganze Leben
C#m
Ist nur ein Tropfen im Ozean
Bm
Wartend darauf
A
Nachhause zu kommen
D
Und wenn der Mond
C#m
Die Gezeiten drehn und
Bm
Die Traenen von
A
Unsern Augen nimmt
D
Werden sie zum Monsun
D
Jetzt oder spaeter
C#m
Werden sie ihren weg zum Meer
Wiederfinden
Bm
Um frei zu sein
A
Frei fuer eine Zeit
D
Bis sie brechen
C#m
Wie Trauerwellen es so tun
Bm
Alles in ihrer Zeit
A
Denn Zeit wartet nie.
B Ebm
Papa, nicht wieder tagtaeumen
A C#m
Hilf mir einfach dran zu glauben
G Bm
Beweis mir dass es mehr gibt
E
Als die Zwischenzeit
B Ebm
Kleiner, hoerst du das?
A C#m
Du fuehlst es wenn sie bricht
G Bm
Du weisst es wenn sie tot ist
E A
Wie soll ichs sonst erklaeren?
D
Denn es ist nur der Schmerz
A
Der auf dich zukommt
D
Um dich zu erinnern
A C#m
Rueber zu dir : erstaunt
Bm E
Stolperst du durch den Tag
A C#m
Du sagst mir : Zeit wartet nie
Bm
Das ist okay
E
Denn ich auch nicht auf die Zeit
D
Das ganze Leben
C#m
Ist nur ein Tropfen im Ozean
Bm
Wartend darauf
A
Nachhause zu kommen
D
Und wenn der Mond
C#m
Die Gezeiten drehn und
Bm
Die Traenen von
A
Unsern Augen nimmt
D
Werden sie zum Monsun
D
Jetzt oder spaeter
C#m
Werden sie ihren weg zum Meer

Frei fuer eine Zeit
D
Bis sie brechen
