                  Sew up the wounds of evolution
                                                   F9M     F6           F9M  F6 
                  And the now starts to get in my way
                                   C9M     C7+/E 
                  So what if life's a revelation
                                                   F9M     F6           F9M  F6 
                  If the mind speaks of only today

                                                   F9M     F6           F9M  F6 
                  When the weight turns a smile to a frown
                   C9M     C7+/E 
                                  So hard to drink of passion nectar
                                                   F9M     F6           F9M  F6 
                  When the taste of life's holding me down
