Dmaj7 G
Dmaj7 G
Bite my tongue
Dmaj7 G
and I won't say a word against anyone
F#m Bm
but I don't wanna get my fingers wet
G Em
unless it's an accident
fell out on the street
now I'm watching my shoes and I grit my teeth
but I don't have to look that way
if I had half a say
D/F# G
It's about time
D/F# G
It's about time
D/F# G
lick my lips
D/F# G
and I won't hear the end of this
On your knees a reassurance
buy some time and come back for it
before long
before it's gone
patience is like bread I say
I ran out of that yesterday
it's about time
it's about time
G
enough about us
let's talk about me
if not about you
A
It's not about sunshine
It's about time
It's about time
touch my leg
It's smooth but there stubble there
I'll fall back and let'em go
only when I know you know
I don't know
make me sure
Have your people contact mine
and keep your lawyer on the line
it's about time (x4)
