Chord/Tab song: Hourglass

Andrew Horn

Verse 1
[B]Nothing is forever
And good things never [F#m]last
And [E]learning in the future
Is based on lessons from the[F#m] past
Thought we were G[B]old in the Fire
And we could not be [F#m]burned
Until you l[E]ost your desire
And I melted to [F#m]learn

Pre-Chorus
[C#m]Thought I could [E]stop you from [B]changing s[F#m]hape
[C#m]But two people c[E]annot believe on[B] one mans [F#m]faith

Chorus
[B]And your love is was
[F#m]An hourglass
[E]What I thought I?d found
[F#m]Was too good to last
[B]And your love it was
[F#m]A promise made
[E]But our lock and key
[F#m]Held a broken chain
And [C#m]now when I [E]see you
I just [B]don?t un[F#m]derstand
A[C#m]ll that I needed from you [E]then
Has now become all the [B]time on my [F#m]hands

Verse 2
It was torture to see it coming
As we reached our end of days
The sands of time were falling
From a Pre-Mature Heart Decay
And as I stood in falsehood
In our final hour
I prayed for the roots of a Redwood
But you withered like a flower

Pre-Chorus
And when you finally spoke the words that broke my heart
I couldn?t blame you too much when I knew from the start

That your love, it was...
