        Dm  C  Bb  C
[Primeira Parte]
(It starts with one)
Dm 
One thing I don't know why
    C
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
 Bb
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme
       C
To explain in due time
(All I know)
        Dm
All I know time is a valuable thing
 C
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
 Bb
Watch it count down to the end of the day
           C
The clock ticks life away
(It's so unreal)
           Dm
It's so unreal, didn't look out below
 C
Watch the time go right out the window
   Bb
Trying to hold on but didn't even know
 C
Wasted it all just to
(Watch you go)
           Dm
Watch you go, I kept everything inside
           C
And even though I tried it all fell apart
  Bb
What it meant to me will eventually
          C
Be a memory of a time when
[Refrão]
               Dm
I've tried so hard
            F
And got so far
           C
But in the end
                 Bb
It doesn't even matter
       C  Dm
I had to fall
           F
To lose it all
           C
But in the end
                 Bb    
It doesn't even matter
[Segunda Parte]
Dm
One thing I don't know why
    C
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
 Bb
Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme
      C
To remind myself how
(I've tried so hard)
               Dm
I've tried so hard in spite
Of the way you were mocking me
C
  Acting like I was part of your property
Bb
   Remembering all the times
You've fought with me
C                         
  I'm surprised it got so far
(Got so far)
  Dm
Things aren't the way they were before
C
  You wouldn't even recognize me anymore
Bb
   Not that you knew me back then
       C
But it all comes back to me
        Dm
(In the end)
You kept everything inside
           C
And even though I tried it all fell apart
  Bb
What it meant to me will eventually
          C
Be a memory of a time when

           F
To lose it all
           C
But in the end
                 Bb    
It doesn't even matter
[Ponte]
           Dm      C     
I put my trust in you
           Bb           C
Pushed as far as I can go
              Dm                               
And for all this
             C                     
There's only one thing
             Bb  C
You should know
           Dm      F     
I put my trust in you
           C            Bb
Pushed as far as I can go
        C     Dm                               
And for all this
             F                     
There's only one thing
             C  Bb
You should know

But in the end
                 Bb
It doesn't even matter
       C  Dm
I had to fall
           F
To lose it all
           C
But in the end
                 Bb    
It doesn't even matter
