[Intro]
 F  Dm  C  F 

[Verse]
 F 
Had enough
                                     Dm 
Of the right that we know when it's wrong
                                        C 
Of the good times to know when they're gone
                                F 
Of the songs that remain to be sung
                                       Dm 
Living life care free and bannered in youth
                    C 
Built on eternal debut
                                Bb 
Neglecting and stretching the truth

[Chorus]
 Bb 
Watching time slip away
                           Dm   C  
And all its color fade to gray
 Bb                       Dm   F         C 
What's been written in stone can't be erased

[Verse]
        F 
Looking back
                       Dm 
We were so young and naive
                            C 
To pretend growing up was impossible
                        Bb 
Hell we thought it was optional
              F 
Now there's shadows
                              Dm 
Where color found life in the past
                              C 
And silence where voice had a chance
                                     Bb 
Left with questions that we'll never ask

[Chorus]
 Bb 
Watching time slip away
                           Dm   C  
And all its color fade to gray
 Bb                       Dm   F         C 
What's been written in stone can't be erased
 Bb 
It's sad how life slips away
                   Dm                C 
In the blink of an eye it's gone by
 Bb                     Dm          F          C 
And the flashbacks are all that we managed to save

[Bridge]
         Bb 
If we're lost
                 Dm 
And can't find a way
              Bb                 C 
To turn these embers back into a flame
 Bb   Dm      C 
Keep holding on

         Bb 
If we're lost
                Dm 
With nowhere to run
       Bb                         C 
If the rush we've been chasing is gone
 Bb   Dm      C 
Keep holding on

[Chorus]
 Bb 
Watching time slip away
                           Dm   C  
And all its color fade to gray
 Bb                       Dm   F         C 
What's been written in stone can't be erased
 Bb 
It's sad how life slips away
                   Dm                C 
In the blink of an eye it's gone by
 Bb                     Dm          F          C 
And the flashbacks are all that we managed to save

[Outro]
 Bb                     Dm          F          C 
And the flashbacks are all that we managed to save
