^Am Thick as thieves the last of leaves
^F In the winter sun
^Am Holding fast this freezing branch
^F Is home to us
^C Step, step right over the ^F line
and ^E onto borrowed ^C time
When it's life, not waiting to ^F die
^E Waiting to divide to divide
Interlude: Am - F
^Am Counting stars and passing cars
On the ^F interstate
^Am The end is near I feel it dear,
But I am ^F not afraid
^C Step, step right over the ^F line
And ^E onto borrowed ^C time
When it's life, not waiting to ^F die
^E Waiting to divide to divide
^Am But you say you're getting ^F tired
You're tired and so am I
^Am When you follow from be ^F hind
Interlude: C - F (x2)
^C Step, step right over the ^F line
And ^E onto borrowed ^C time
When it's life, not waiting to ^F die
^E Waiting to divide to divide
Interlude: C
^Am But you say you're getting ^F tired
You're tired and so am I
^Am When you follow from ^F behind...
Interlude: Am
