[Verse]

Cmaj7       Bm7              Am7
   He lays alone cries on his own

    G             D           Cmaj7
For horizons that he'll never reach

                 Bm7               Em7
And all of those dreams are washed on the beach

Cmaj7                Bm7                     Am7
   She's drowning in oceans of shackled emotions

       G          D           Cmaj7
Going round and around in her head

                 Bm7           Em7
While out on the streets people forget

[Bridge]

          C
That it's love you want

Em       Bm
Love you want

C           D
Love you want

[Verse]

Cmaj7            Bm7                   Am7
    She speaks of hoping, he speaks of fighting

    G                   D         Cmaj7
And tells her that they will come through

                   Bm7              Em7
'Cause he wants to feel the shock of the new

Cmaj7         Bm7              Am7
   People that hurt you and they burn you

     G         D                Cmaj7
With acid that falls from the sky

               Bm7               Em7
And out of the silence your voice says why?

[Bridge]

        C
If it's love you want

Em       Bm
Love you want

C           D
Love you want

[Chorus]

Em                     Bm             C
   It's a matter of time, a matter of time

                      G     D             Em
But you're asking why, oh, life makes you cry?

               Bm                   C         D
Turn moss into roses and blood into wine

Em                     Bm             C
   It's a matter of time, a matter of time

                   G       D             Em
But all of your past still plays on your mind

            Bm                 C          D
And maybe tomorrow you'll live by design

                 Em
It's a matter of time

D          Cmaj7
Ohhh Oh Oh Oh

Bm7      Am7
Uhhhh Uh Uhhhhh

[Verse]

Cmaj7        Bm7                Am7
   This isn't giving this isn't living

          G         D            Cmaj7
Ooh, just days that pull you apart

                  Bm7               Em7
And tears turn to rust that fall on still hearts

Cmaj7              Bm7                  Am7
    So swallow your maybes and cradle your babies

G              D              Cmaj7
Tell them that they will come through

            Bm7            Em7
Their gonna feel the shock of the new

        C
If it's love you want

Em       Bm
Love you want

C           D
Love you want

[Chorus]

Em                     Bm             C
   It's a matter of time, a matter of time

                      G     D             Em
But you're asking why, oh, life makes you cry?

               Bm                   C         D
Turn moss into roses and blood into wine

Em                     Bm             C
   It's a matter of time, a matter of time

                   G       D             Em
But all of your past still plays on your mind

            Bm                 C          D
And maybe tomorrow you'll live by design

                 Em
It's a matter of time
