        D
What a day to go around
                                C
Heavy in the sound of breaking mirrors
        D
What a day to go around
                                         C
Head up in the clouds, thought you were better
        D
What a way to come around
                                 C
While I take you out I take you walking
             D C
Healing, Mercy

Chorus:
  D E   A
Shadow nearing
 D       E       A
Course there's knowing
                  D     E      A
Where to put the right words, hearin'
                    D
Where does all the time go?

What a day to go around
Heavy in the sound of rivers breaking
What a day to go around
Well the sun came out and it was taking
Breaking me out
What a day to go around
While I take you out, I take you walking
Healing

Chorus:
Missing light
Dance around a pale blue sky
Where does all the time go?
Always fearing
Our hands clawing
Up against the light, it's nearing
Where does all the time go?

Always fearing
Our hands clawing
Up against the light, it's nearing
Where does all the time go?
