Dm

[Verse]

Dm
Wake to the creaks and groans
                      Bb
Of the motors and the masts

On the sovereign sea
Dm
Trinkets of shrieking bone
                    Bb
Tainted tokens of a past

Come to trouble me


[Bridge]

       G         F
Out of time I go running
   C                     Dm
As you’re running out of time
                   G             F
Storming forth I return from the nothing
     C                      Dm
I am back to reclaim what’s mine


[Verse]

Dm
Cast into darkest voids
                     Bb
Ever waiting for the chime

Of the hand at two
Dm
Clots of a heart destroyed
                   Bb
Circulating in the blind

As they stand with you


[Bridge]

       G         F
Out of time I go running
   C                     Dm
As you’re running out of time
                   G             F
Storming forth I return from the nothing
     C                      Dm
I am back to reclaim what’s mine


[Chorus]

Bb       G
Keep the clocks a running
D
Keep every hammer drumming
Bb        G        D
Time will open the doors
Bb       G
Keep the clocks a running
D
Keep every hammer drumming
F          G           D
I’m coming back to the fore
        F                 G           D
Set the wheels I’m coming back to the fore


[Interlude]

F E Eb D
F E Eb A

F          E              Eb        D
Clockworks click and they clink within
F         E          Eb         A
Locks and riddles of rings will spin
F         E           Eb          D
Cogwheels linking the springs and pins
F             E       A
The walls are closing in

F E Eb D
F E A


[Bridge]

G F C D x2

           G                     F
And I have been to some bad, bad places
      C                    D
Taken gifts at the darkest shrines
               G                   F
I have seen despair in the saddest faces
        C                      D
Now I’m back to reclaim what’s mine


[Chorus](w/ single strokes)

Bb       G
Keep the clocks a running
D
Keep every hammer drumming
Bb        G        D
Time will open the doors
Bb       G
Keep the clocks a running
D
Keep every hammer drumming
F          G           D
I’m coming back to the fore
        F                 G           D
Set the wheels I’m coming back to the fore


[Chorus]

Bb       G
Keep the clocks a running
D
Keep every hammer drumming
Bb        G        D
Time will open the doors
Bb       G
Keep the clocks a running
D
Keep every hammer drumming
F          G           D
I’m coming back to the fore
        F                 G           D
Set the wheels I’m coming back to the fore

          F                  G        D
There’s a whalesong drifting over the shores
        F                 G           D
Set the wheels I’m coming back to the fore
