[Eb] It was late in [Bb] December, [Gm] the sky turned [Ab] to snow.
All [Bb] around the day [Cm] was [Bb] going [Ab] down slow.
[Eb] Night [Bb] like a river [Gm] beginning [Ab] to flow. _
I [Bb] felt the beat of [Cm] my [Bb] mind [Ab] go dripping.
[Eb] Time [Bb] _ passages, _ _ [Ab] _
[Eb] yet [Bb] go falling [Cm] in the fading [F] light.
[Eb] Time [Bb] passages, [Bb] _ _ _ [Ab] _
buy me a ticket [Gm] on the last [Bb] train home [Eb] tonight.

[Eb] Well I'm [Bb] not the kind [Gm] to live in [Ab] the past.
The years [Bb] run too short [Cm] and the [Bb] days [Ab] too fast.
[Eb] The [Bb] things you lean [Gm] on are things that [Ab] don't last.
Well it's just [Bb] now and then, [Cm] my [Bb] line [Ab] gets cast [Eb] into these [Bb] time [Bb] passages.
_ _ [Ab] _
[Eb] _ [Bb] There's something back [Cm] there that you left [F] behind, [Eb] oh [Bb] time passages.
_ _ [Ab] _
_ Buy me a ticket [Gm] on the last train [Bb] home [Eb] tonight.

_ [Eb] _ [Bb] _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ [Ab] _
_ [B] Hear the echoes [Abm] and feel yourself starting to [Eb] turn. _ _ _ _ _
_ [B] Don't know why you should [Abm] feel that there's something to [Cm] learn.
_ [F] _ It's just a game that you [Eb] [Bb] play.

_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] Well the picture is [Bb] [Gm] changing now, you're part of a [Ab] crowd.
They're laughing at [Bb] something, [Cm] the [Bb] [Ab] music's loud.
[Eb] A girl comes [Gm] towards you, you once used [Ab] to know.
You reach out [Bb] your hand, [Cm] but you're [Bb] all [Ab] alone in [Eb] those time passages.
[Bb] _ _ [Ab] _ _
[Eb] I [Bb] know you're in there, [Cm] you're just out [F] of sight, [Eb] oh [Bb] time [Ab] passages.
[Bb] _ _ [Ab] _ _
