Notes: Normal E works just as well as E7. C\G works just as well as C.
The chord changes in the intro are fast (2 beats per 4/4 bar) and there are
many pushes to start new bars throughout the song. Listen to the recording for timing.

[Intro]
Am F Dm6 G C F
[Verse 1]
Am E7
You said buying time is useless
F
when all of the loose ends
C G Am
get you tied up in knots
E7
It isn't a question
F
but more a suggestion
C G
that you're supposed to move on
(same as intro)
Am F Dm6 G C F
[Verse 2]
Am E7
If apathy befalls you
F
and nobody calls you
C G Am
to see if your heart is aligned
E7 F
The operation will end the frustration
C G
removing the blinders to find
[Chorus 1]
Am F
that we didn't see the problems
F Dm6 G
up until the point that we solved them
C F Dm6
Maybe if we hadn't looked out on the ocean
G
we wouldn't have fallen in
Am F
Now there's a letter on the shelf,
F Dm6 G
“Baby you need time for yourself,
C F
I'll give it to you”
Dm6 G
All the rest seems to logically follow
(Same as intro)
Am F Dm6 G C F
Am F Dm6 G C F
[Verse 3]
Am E7
So when your station calls you
F
please don't let me stall you
C G Am
inside I was always prepared
E7
'Cause when we're together,
F
in rainier weather,
C G
clouds leave our vision impaired
[Chorus 2]
Am F
so we didn't see the problems
Dm6 G
up until the point that we solved them
C F Dm6
Maybe if we hadn't looked out on the ocean
G
it wouldn't have parted, oh
Am F
And now the letter on the shelf says
Dm6 G
“Baby you need time for yourself,
C F
I'll give it to you”
Dm6 G
Don't remember how all of it started
[Bridge]
E7 F G Dm6
E7 F G Dm6 E7
[Chorus 3]
Am F
No, we didn't see the problems
F Dm6 G
up until the point that we solved them
C F Dm6
Maybe if we hadn't looked out on the ocean
G
we wouldn't have fallen in
Am F
Now there's a letter on the shelf,
F Dm6 G
“Baby you need time for yourself,
C F
I'll give it to you”
Dm6 G
Yeah, the rest seems to logically follow, oh oh
[Outro]
(same as chorus)
Am F Dm6 G C F Dm6 G
Am F Dm6 G C F Dm6 G
[Outro 2]
(same as intro)
Am F Dm6 G C F
Am F Dm6 G C F
