Tom: E
[Intro - Riff 1]
E A B7 B7
Never thought we'd ever end.
E A B7 B7
I can't afford to lose more friends.
E A B7 B7
Not to have you close at hand
E A B7 B7
Wasn't quite what I had planned.
E
(It's that time)
A
Is it that time?
Gbm A
A moment that will pass
E
(Yes, it's that time)
A
Is it that time?
Gbm A
We knew it couldn't last.
E A B7 B7
I'm just trying to catch my breath.
E A B7 B7
A heart that beats itself to death,
E A B7 B7
Panic stricken by the thought
E A B7 B7
You're not here for my support.
E
(But its that time)
A
Is it that time?
Gbm A
A curtain has to fall.
E
(Yes, it's that time)
A
Is it that time?
Gbm A
The writing's on the wall.
E
(You're in your prime )
A
You're in your prime now, darling,
Gbm A
And that's the worst of all.
E A Gbm B7 B7
It's just that time.

Gbm B7 B
Night must fall.
I'm so lonely.
I'm so sorry.
E A B7 B7
Can we ever justify
E A B7 B7
Letting sleeping hatred lie?
E A B7 B7
In the trenches hand-to-hand
E A B7 B7
Is the measure of a man.
Am I a man?
E
(It's that time)
A
Is it that time?
Gbm A
The light has almost gone.
E
(Yes, it's that time)
A
Is it that time?
Gbm A
The carnival moves on.
E
You're in your prime
A
(You're in your prime now, darling)
Gbm A
And you did nothing wrong,
E A Gbm B7 B7
It's just that time.

Gbm B7 B
Night has come.
