[Verse 1]
Bm                A                D                        G
Time's wheel goes round and round, down to the sound of the broken ground
Bm                     A                  D                     G
Play the song you want to through me, and I'll play to a broken melody
Bm                    A            D                        G
Circuit-boards in the foaming sea, not like where we really meant to be
Bm                 A        D                     G
In my head a faded harmony, ringing out until the end of me
 
[Chorus]
     Bm          A      D          G
When time stands still, time won't heal
Bm          A      D          G
Time stands still, time won't heal
Bm            A  D              G
We gotta wake up, the stars are dust
Bm            A  D              G
We gotta keep on, our star will fuss
Bm A          D G
   Aaaaaah
Bm A  D             G
      The stars are done
 
[Verse 2]
Bm                  A            D                        G
Can your heart ever be re-found, lost in the ground with a beating sound
Bm                     A                    D                  G
Play the song you want to through me, while aching for the old melody
Bm                    A        D                 G
Rusting parts showing vacancy, locked behind the golden key
Bm                 A        D                     G
In my head a faded harmony, ringing out until the end of me
 
[Chorus]
Bm          A      D          G
Time stands still, time won't heal
Bm          A      D          G
Time stands still, time won't heal
Bm            A  D              G
We gotta wake up, the stars are dust
Bm            A  D              G
We gotta keep on, our star will fuss
Bm A          D G
   Aaaaaah
Bm A  D             G
      The stars are done
 
[Bridge]
Em            F#m
I can never forget
G                 A
The memory hasn't left me
Em            F#m
I can never regret
G        A
Though I might go down
 
[Outro]
    Bm          A      D          G
And time stands still, time won't heal
Bm          A      D          G
Time stands still, time won't heal
Bm            A  D         G
We gotta wake up, baked in blood
Bm            A  D      G
We gotta wake up, faded rust
Bm          A      D          G
Time stands still, time won't heal
Bm          A      D          G
Time stands still, time won't heal
Bm          A      D          G
Time stands still, time won't heal
Bm          A      D          G
Time stands still, time won't heal
