Time Will Break The World

    Am           C               
The sun and the shutters and the sun
D
 shattered hair
     Am        C            D
The butler hesitates at the top of 
the stairs
    Am              C             
A kitten from Great Britain sleeps
  D
 behind the drapes
    Am        C              
An old silver bowl filled with 
   D
apples and grapes

     F                    Em   
It's so very cold in the mansion 
       Am
after sunset
     F                         
The snow is blowing through the 
 Em        Am
baseboard outlets
       F                 Em       
And I have no idea what drives 
  Am
you, mister
F                              Em
Tanning beds explode with rich 
    Am
women inside

[Chorus]
Am     E
All my poor, hungry children
Am     E
All my poor, hungry children

 Dm       Em        Am
Time will break the world

 Dm       Em        Am

[Verse]
    Am          C        D
The snow falls down so beautiful and
 stupid
         Am       C         D
For the black silhoutte of Abraham 
Lincoln trees
     Am           C         
The sky's low and grey like a 
  D
Japanese table
       Am       C            D
And my horse's legs look like four 
brown shotguns

     F                           
The icicles are dripping like the 
  Em            Am
whole house is weeping
       F                    Em    
On an evil little car with 
   Am
gull-wing doors
           F             Em       
And I have no idea what drives 
   Am
you, mister
           F                     
But I've killed you in my mind so 
       Em     Am
many times before

[Chorus]
Am      E
All my poor, hungry children
Am      E
All my poor, hungry children
Am      E
All my poor, hungry children
 Dm        Em       Am
Time will break the world
 Dm        Em       Am
Time will break the world
 Dm        Em       Am
Time will break the world
