[Verse 8]
[A]Time[Gm]
Every [Dm]light on the blue sky
[Eb]The night will beauti[Bb]fy[F]
[Gm]Time
Cast coins in a [Dm]waterfall
Two [Eb]coins, one for each [C]eye
[Am]Time

[Verse 9]
The icy [Em]tingle of empty va
[C]por on your [G]hand
[Am]Time
[Em]A tiny crack's a grand [F]canyon in its com[D]mand[Bm]
