Note: This is a simplified version of the picking pattern

 A                                             Bm
"Biding My Time" getting stuck in my mind is a boat to row. (?)
A                                               Bm      
Two hours later back in my neighbourhood, where everything just stops.
   A                                                      Bm
It still looks the same, they remember my name stepped it in for a cup full.
          A                                               Bm
There's a big city man, I used to rumble with him back in high school.

    D          C#m      Bm
The slow cruel hands of time
D                    C#m      Bm7
Turn you into molten lava, oh my

          A                                                      Bm
There's a place on the right, you can stop for a while, look out for a policeman
        A                                        Bm
There's no street lamps only free buildings, and one of them's vacant
   A                                            Bm
Is taking all day, the pack's feeling heavy and soon the night.

Backwards down the mountain the axel is grinding, pull into the wrong drive.

    D      C#m    Bm
The sky is in the yard,
D                      C#m    Bm7
Stringing cotton candy in the fall.

F#m7  E        C#m     D     
Slow  card the hard to fall
F#m7 E            C#m              D
So   long times I don't want it at all
     Bm           E
I've done this so long
C#m                  D
Something I ought to know
Bm7  A
So   long.


> (A)   Bm7   A   Bm7  [solo]

A                                             Bm
Finally up, all the pieces disrrupted and the birds fly.
A                                                      Bm
Trapped for a moment, the sheriff's department got the wrong guy.

    D         C#m        Bm             
The town is revealed the lone, 
D            C#m             Bm7
visible winds... through the fog.

     D          C#m      Bm7
This slow cruel hands of time, 
D           C#m         Bm7
turning you back into a child.
