Falling Through Time chords and lyrics - DON MCLEAN

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Am]
I can't answer the questions you ask me,
I don't know what to say.
The answers are somewhere
lost in the stars
when the night has turned to day.
[D]But I know if the silence of
[Bm]night could be here,
[F]It would drift through my soul
and [Bb]calm all my [D]fear
[G]An d I could [Bdim]reach out and d[E]raw you so
[F]near [Dm]to me[A][F#m][D]
[Am]

[Verse 2]
Touch me and warm me
and I will lie still.
And all that you ask me to give you I will
One living moment we'll have
for our own.
A brief flash of time that we spent all alone.
[D]But you ask me for nothing
[Bm]an d give what you can
An[F]d we're wrapped in a pillow
of [Bb]sleep once again
And [F]my memory [Bb]drift[Dm] s thro[Em]ugh the
[E]universe [Em]when [Am]we are one[A][G][Em][Am]
[Em]Closely

[Verse 3]
we're [Am]falling[G]
[A]thr[Am]ough tim[Bb]e[Am]
And the earth will turn in
the silence of space,
always in motion yet always in place
And all things will change
yet remain what they are.
And far will be near and near [Bb]will be far
[Am]And the [D]ages will darken
and blend [Bm]into time
And [F]all that is poetry will
[Bb]no longer rhyme
[Bdim]But our moment [Bm]together [E]is
forever sub[Am]lime

[Verse 4]
[Am]
For the time has arrived when we
must understand
That we're lost in a void [A]on
this sad [Am]speck of sand
And nobody knows [Bb]where we
[Am]are, no one cares
And the tears that we shed
in the dark no one cares
[D]And the madmen who plunder
[Bm]this world for their fame
[F]Have forgotten that no one
[Bb]remembers their name
But time and the universe [Dm]are
[E]always [Em]the same[Am][A]

[Verse 5]
[A]Closely [Am]we'r[G]e fa[Dm]lling[Bb][Dm][F]
[Dm]thro[D]ugh [Dm]time

[Outro 1]
