(intro): |D  Em  |  x4



D Em D Em       D       Em D Em

Time__,  why you punish me

Like a wave crashing into the shore

You wash away my dreams

Time__,  why you walk away

Like a friend with somewhere to go

You left me crying



           Asus2

   Can you teach me about tommorow

       G                      D    Em       D  Em

   and all the pain and sorrow, running free

           Em                       Asus A

   Cause tomorrow's just another day

                          D    Em  etc

   And I don't believe in time



Time__,  I don't understand

Chidren killing in the streets

Dying for the color of a rag

Time__,  hey there red and blue

Wash them in the ocean make them clean

Maybe their mothers won't cry tonight



   Will you teach me about tommorow

   When all the pain and sorrow, running free

   But tomorrow's just another day

   And I don't believe in



      D

      Time is wasting

        Em

      Time is walking

     D             Em

      You ain't no friend of mine

     D             Em

      I don't know where I'm going

     D          Em        A    G

      Think I'm out of my mind

                     D    Em   D    Em

      Thinking about time

    Em                  Asus

      If I die tomorrow yeah

           A              D    Em   D    Em

      just lay me down to sleep



Solo: |Bm  A  |G     |Bm  A  |D  G  |A  G  |A  G  |A  G  |



      Time is wasting

      Time is walking

      You ain't no friend of mine

      I don't know where I'm going

      Think I'm out of my mind

      Thinking about time



Time__,  you left me standing there

Like a tree growing all alone

The wind just stripped me bare, stripped me bare

Time__,  the past has come and gone

The future's far away

But now only lasts for one second, one second



   Can you teach me about tommorow

   And all the pain and sorrow, running free

   Cause tommorow's just another day

   And I don't believe in



      Time is wasting

      Time is walking

      You ain't no friend of mine

      I don't know where I'm going

      Think I'm out of my mind     {keep playing Ds and Ems}

      Walking, wasted

      You ain't no friend of mine

      I don't know where I'm going

                   A                        G

      Oh no, no, no, Do without courage and ???

                D     Em       D       Em

      It's just wasted, wasted, wasted time

    Em    Asus A

      Oh..



D  Em  D  Em  D  Em  D  Em

           Ooo............

D Em D Em       D       Em   D

Time__,  why you punish me?



Chords: D-xx0232  Em-022033(technically Em7)  A-x02220

        G-320033  Asus-x02230  Bm-x24432  Asus2-x02200

................



The following is the riff played (twice at the start as an intro, and then

throughout the verse) by two semi-clean electric guitars

  +     +     +     +	    +     +     +     +

|-------------------3-----|-------------------3-----|

The bridge ("Can you teach me about tomorrow..") goes along these lines

  +   +   +   +	    +   +   +   +

|-----------------|-----3---3-----3-|

|---------0-----0-|---3-------3-----|

|-----2-----2-----|-------0-----0---|

|---2---2---------|-----------------|

Then the main riff again, followed by

  +   +   +   +	    +   +   +   +

|---------3-------|-----------------|

|-------3---3-----|-3-----2---------|

|-----0-------0---|---2-------------|

At this point an acoustic guitar enters strumming the chords. From this

point on, one of the electrics plays the riff during the verses, the part

shown above during the bridges, and strums the chords during the choruses

("Time is wasting..") and solo. The second electric plays the occasional

power chord during verses and bridges and strums along to the choruses.

It also takes the solo:

  +   +   +   +	    +       +   +   +     +   +   +   +

  +       +       +  +    +       +          +   +

At the end of the last chorus, the second guitar drops out; the acoustic

and the first electric play the main riff in unison to the end, finishing

with an open D chord.
