Time is Passing
By: Marianne Mettes


I will probably be working an instrumental part in here somewhere.


Intro
D, D7, G, C.
[repeat 4 times]

Verse
D, D7, G, C.
[repeat]

Time is passing, over your apple sky.
Time is passing, over your tree, curry pie.
'Cause the day is long,
But will return a new day just as long.

[repeat chord progression without vocals twice]

Now don't start wasting, crystal tears from your eye.
Don't ever start wasting, the sprinkling sun that passes by.
Just 'cause the day is gone,
Waiting for that new type of song.

Chorus
D, G, Em, A.
[repeat 4 times, on the word "flew" go back to main chord progression]

Why do you, measure up just incase,
Everyday is as plain as your face.
Why don't you, just get out of the cue,
And fly as high as that birdy just flew.

Verse
D, D7, G, C.
[repeat]

Now you're facing, cows that moo in rhythmic time.
Now you're tasting, grass as green as lime.
Soon the day is gone,
And returns a new day just as long.

[repeat chord progression without vocals twice]

Now we're passing, the horizon you can't pass by.
Now we're passing, questions of who or why.
'Cause the day isn't long,
When you find that new type of song.

Chorus
D, G, Em, A.
[repeat, improvise and fade out]

Why do you, measure up just incase,
Everyday is as plain as your face.
Why don't you, just get out of the cue,
And fly as high as that birdy just flew.
