Tom: E
A C#m
[Verse 1]
A
The clock on the wall, it never stops ticking
C#m
It feels almost new but I've been here before
A
I wait for your call but it's never coming
B C#m
And I'm always running away
B A
Sick of "God has a plan"
A
Things happen for a reason
C#m
It feels so unfair that it happened this way
A
The clock on the wall, it never stops ticking
C#m E
But your time was cut short
[Chorus]
A C#m B
I've been seeing your face in the steady glow
A
Of the torch I hold
C#m B A
As your flame just burned out so
A
So suddenly
[Verse 2]
A
We said no goodbyes
A
The last thing you told me was
C#m E
See you next month, when the leaves start to fall
A
I know that you're gone, I can't help but wonder
C#m E
If you could still hear me now
A
The funeral home
C#m
The man at the podium, he said "Jesus saves"
E
But what did he save you from?
A
No goodbyes
C#m
The last words you told me are ringing in my head
[Chorus]
A C#m B
I've been seeing your face in the steady glow
A
Of the torch I hold
C#m B A
As your flame just burned out so
C#m B A
As your flame just burned out so
E
So suddenly
B E C#m E B
[Bridge]
A
I'd got back to your house on Main
B
But I don't wanna relive all the pain
C#m E B
It's been two years since you left on that September day
A
I take care of your guitars and your radio collection
B
Promise it's in loving hands
C#m E B A
Two years, I still think about you every day
[Pre-Chorus]
A
The clock on the wall, it never stops ticking
C#m
It feels almost new but I've been here before
A
I wait for your call but it's never coming
C#m
And I'm always running away
B
Yeah, I'm always running away
A E
B E
C#m A
[Chorus]
E B C#m B
I've been seeing your face in the steady glow
A
Of the torch I hold
C#m B A
But your flame just burned out so
C#m B
Are you at the top of the world
A
Or the back of my mind?
C#m B A
But your flame just burned out so
C#m B A
And your flame just burned out so
A
Suddenly
[Outro]
N.C.
So suddenly
E A
(fade out)
