It was [D]late in De[A/D]cember, the [F#m7]sky turned to [G]snow
[G] All round the [A]day was [Bm]going [A]down [G]slow
[D] Night like a [A/D]river be[F#m7]ginning to [G]flow
[G] I felt the [A]beat of my [Bm]mind [A]go [G]drifting into
[D]Time [A/D]passages[G/D]
[D] Years go [A]falling in the [Bm]fading [E]light
[D]Time [A/D]passages[G/D]

Well, [D]I'm not the [A/D]kind to [F#m7]live in the [G]past
The [G]years run too [A]short and the [Bm]days [A]too [G]fast
[D] The things you [A/D]lean on are [F#m7]things that don't [G]last
Well, it's [G]just now and [A]then my [Bm]line [A]gets [G]cast into these
[D]Time [A/D]passages[G/D]
[D] There's something [A]back here that you [Bm]left be[E]hind
Oh, [D]time [A/D]passages[G/D]
G F#m7 A [D]

[Bb] Hear the echoes and [Bb6-5]feel yourself starting to [D]turn
[Bb] Don't know why you should [Bb6-5]feel that there's something to [Bm]learn
E (break) [D]
It's just a game that you play

Well, the [D]picture is [A/D]changing, now you're [F#m7]part of a [G]crowd
They're [G]laughing at [A]something and the [Bm]mu-[A]sic's [G]loud
A [D]girl comes to[A/D]wards you, you [F#m7]once used to [G]know
You [G]reach out your [A]hand but you're [Bm]all [A]a-[G]lone in these
[D]Time [A/D]passages[G/D]
