Lyrics

Time Burns On


Bm G
I spent a long day with the desert winds
A Bm
Sand kept blowing all around
Bm G
And I have a hard time with the desert heat
A Bm
Constant sweat upon my brow

Bm G
When the night falls, well so do I
A Bm
So please pick me up in the morning time
Bm G
I’ll waiting for you to tell me when it’s right
A Bm
To get back on my train again


A
I gotta blow out of this Texas town
G D
And back to my home
G D
Where the pace ain’t so slow
A
And time burns on

A
I gotta get back to my Brooklyn flat
G D
Where the neighbors don’t know my name
G D
And the forecast calls for rain
A
And time burns on

Where time burns on

Now I’m back out on the road again
The county roads feel lone and bare
I better flag a ride before the sun goes down
When the winds stir the cold desert air

A
I gotta blow out of this Texas town
G D
And back to my home
G D
Where the pace ain’t so slow
A
And time burns on

A
I gotta get back to my Brooklyn flat
G D
Where the neighbors don’t know my name
G D
And the forecast calls for rain
A
And time burns on

Where time burns on

Solo over verse

A
I gotta blow out of this Texas town
G D
And back to my home
G D
Where the pace ain’t so slow
A
And time burns on

A
I gotta get back to my Brooklyn flat
G D
Where the neighbors don’t know my name
G D
And the forecast calls for rain
A
And time burns on

Where time burns on
