I turn my back to the Wind      To catch my breath, Before I start off again

                                    B9                                                                     A9                       B9

Driven on, Without a moment to spend To pass an evening With a drink and a friend

C#m                                   A9                                                   E

I let my skin get too thin       I’d like to pause, No matter what I pretend

                                 B9                                                                                A9        B9    A9  E  C#m   B9

Like some pilgrim -- Who learns to transcend -- Learns to live   As if each step was the end

A9                E      C#m                                        B9

Time stand still --       I’m not looking back  But I want to look around me now

A9                E      C#m                                        B9                                 B9        A9              B9   A9

Time stand still       more of the people And the places that surround me now.   Time stand still

E                  C#m                           B9      A9                           F#m                       E

Freeze this moment   A little bit longer        Make each sensation  A little bit stronger

D                 A9      E       D                 A9      B9     A9              B9    A9   C#m 

Experience slips away     Experience slips away Time stand still

C#m                                 A9                                                       E

I turn my face to the sun,      I Close my eyes, Let my defences down --

                                      B9

All those wounds That I can’t get unwound

C#m                                         A9                                                         E

       I let my past go too fast,       No time to pause -- If I could slow it all down

                                             B9

Like some captain, Whose ship runs aground

                                 A9                         B9

I can wait until the tide   Comes around

A9                E      C#m                                        B9

Time stand still --       I’m not looking back  But I want to look around me now

A9                E      C#m                                        B9                                 B9        A9       E  

Time stand still       more of the people And the places that surround me now.  

E                  C#m                       B9      A9                        F#m                       E

Freeze this moment  A little bit longer      Make each sensation   A little bit stronger

E                  C#m                               B9       A9                   F#m                         E

Make each impression  A little bit stronger       Freeze this motion  A little bit longer

D                       A9      E       D                       A9      B9                

The innocence slips away     The innocence slips away  

A9              B9    A9             C#m    A9    C#m     A9    E    B9    C#m   A9   E    B9    A9  B9

Time stand still   Time stand still

A9     E      C#m                                      B9

                  I’m not looking back  But I want to look around me now

A9     E      C#m                                        B9                                        B9    E/G#   A9   B9

                  more of the people And the places that surround me now.  

E                 C#m                                 B9        A9                        F#m                                       E

Summer’s going fast -- Nights growing colder     Children growing up – Old friends growing older

E                  C#m                         B9        A9                        F#m                       E

Freeze this moment     A little bit longer       Make each sensation   A little bit stronger

Experience slips away  Experience slips away  The innocence slips away
