verse 1 

        D               A 
In the sweet embrace of twilight 
        Bm                  G 
Just before the night time came 
         D               A 
All her children in the front yard 
           Bm              G 
There was laughter on the breeze 
        D                 A 
Then a call came from her father 
        Bm                  G 
In his house halfway 'cross town 
         D                 A 
He said "Love, I hate to tell you, 
          G                 D           D 
But your mother, she's gone now." 


     A           Bm        D        G 
And time, moving quickly before our eyes 
    A            Bm      D       G 
Oh why do these moments seem to fly? 
 


D A Bm G 


verse 2 

        D               A 
So she tries to tell her husband 
        Bm              G 
But she cannnot make a sound 
        D                     A 
And he hears through all the silence 
      Bm                G 
So before she hits the ground 
         D              A 
He says "Baby, are you with me?" 
        Bm            G 
And she opens up her eyes 
         D               A 
And she says "I lost my mother," 
        G                D 
And a piece of her heart dies 


   A             Bm        D        G 
And time, moving quickly before our eyes 
    A            Bm      D       G 
Oh why do these moments seem to fly? 
   A             Bm        D        G 
And time, moving quickly before our eyes 
    A            Bm      D       G 
Oh why do these moments seem to fly? 
        Bm      D           G           G 
I am trapped and wondering why ...

verse 3 

         D               A 
Now it's late and she is restless 
        Bm                  G 
All her girls are tucked in bed 
        D               A 
She is searching for a meaning 
         Bm                 G 
When all words feel meaningless 
        D                A 
And the hardest part of losing 
        Bm           G 
Is the memory of the win 
        D               A 
And the hardest part of letting go 
            G              D 
Is when you know you never can 
          D                A 
Yeah, the hardest part of letting go 
            G              D        D 
Is when you know you never can 


   A             Bm        D        G 
And time, moving quickly before our eyes 
    A            Bm      D       G 
Oh why do these moments seem to fly? 
   A             Bm        D        G 
And time, moving quickly before our eyes 
    A            Bm      D       G 
Oh why do these moments seem to fly? 
        Bm      D           G 
I am trapped and wondering why ... 
        Bm      D         G       G 
Moving quickly before our eyes
