G D/F#
I saw you stand above the crowd
Em
False prophet with a gun
D
You dove into their arms
G D/F#
Illuminated by the stars
Em
The crowd became a gun
D
They welded to your sorrow
C
Speaking in tongues
Bm E D A E D A E D A Cmaj7
The music rattled on and on
[Verse 2]
G D/F#
A church, not built of brick and mortar
Em
I made a cold confession
D
The velvet curtain closes
G D/F#
Creeping like a nun
Em
A narcoleptic shaman
D
Jim Jones in his bandana
C
Handing out the cups
Bm
To all the wayward sons
E D A E D A E D A E D A
And all the faithful daughters
[Chorus]
E D A
Every time you led the way
E D A
Shaking hands and taking names
E D A
Looking for someone to blame (It's my time)
E D A
Flush the money down the drain (It's my time)
E D A
Whistleblowers on the run (It's my time)
E D A
Future's here and now it's gone (It's my time)
E D A
All the stories never spoken (It's my time)
E D A E
And the winds keep blowing
[Bridge]

G D/F#
And when he stared into the mirror
Em
He only saw a shadow
D
Void of all description
G D/F#
His eyes, rolled back into their sockets
Em
Losing all direction
D
Weighed down by an anchor
C
Longing to be lifted
Bm E D A E D A E D A E D A
Longing to be held in their arms
[Chorus]
E D A
Everybody works today
E D A
Everybody's getting paid
E D A
Everybody's on the take
E D A
You gotta pay to play (It's my time)
E D A
Gonna drink my fill tonight (It's my time)
E D A
Drink until I see the light (It's my time)
E D A
Take a bullet to the brain (It's my time)
E D A
Flush the money down the drain (It's my time)
E D A
Every time you led the way (It's my time)
E D A
Shaking hands and taking names (It's my time)
E D A
Looking for someone to blame (It's my time)
E D A
Flush the money down the drain (It's my time)
E D A
Whistleblowers on the run (It's my time)
E D A
Future's here and now it's gone (It's my time)

All the stories never spoken (It's my time)

And the winds keep blowing
