[Verse 1]
       E
In the lonely night
                              C#m
In the blinking stardust of a pale blue light
                            F#m7
You're comin' thru to me in black and white
     A       Am      E
When we were made of dreams

[Verse 1]
                        E
You're blowing down the shaky street
               C#m
You're hearing my heart beat
              F#m7
In the record-breaking heat
      A       Am      E
Where we were born in time

[Middle 8]
             E                   B
Not one more night, not one more kiss
              A                E/G#
Not this time baby, no more of this
               E                     B
Takes too much skill, takes too much will
           E
It's too revealing
              E                  B
You came, you saw, just like the law
            A                     E/G#
You married young, just like your ma
              E                  F#m
You tried and tried, you made me slide
            B            E/G# E/G# A
You left me reelin' with this fee- lin'

[Verse 3]
       E
On the rising curve
                                   C#m
Where the ways of nature will test every nerve
                           F#m7
You won't get anything you don't deserve
      A       Am      E
Where we were born in time

[Middle 8]
               E                    B
You pressed me once, you pressed me twice
             A                     E/G#
You hang the flame, you'll pay the price
   E          B             E
Oh babe, that fire is still smokin'
         E              B
You were snow, you were rain
         A                 E/G#
You were striped, you were plain
   E           F#m
Oh babe, truer words
              B      E/G# E/G# A
Have not been spoken or   bro- ken

[Verse 4]
                E
In the hills of mystery
                    C#m
In the foggy web of destiny
                    F#m7
You can have what's left of me
      A       Am      E
Where we were born in time
