D
Time is able to discern when long-term love has had its turn
         G
And only then, we'll drop the curtain, let the credits start to roll
    D
Her aura so imposing, had me in your bed and clothing
          G
Luke-warm caffeine in the morning
         D
Can your brother take me home?
When we were pulling strings to keep her around
Those were the days I didn't let it down
       G
Though love will run deep like hurt runs out

[Chorus]
     E                                 A
Time held us in her arms, she loved us hard
     G
Time held us in her arms, she loved us hard and for the longest
E7                                E
Held us in her arms, she loved us hard
     G                                 D
Time held us in her arms, she loved us hard and for the longest

[Refrain]
Bm                   A             D
Raised us, shaped us, moulded and made us
     G
Into who we are today and who we plan to stay

[Verse 2]
     D
Time met us in December, made your name one to remember
                G
Now though only here to cool the embers
She never will cease to console us
      D
So as you look back to where we began
Loosening your grip a little on her hand
G
Keep it in mind, we owe her more
Than we could ever make apparent

[Chorus]
       E
(Time) Barely on our hands, still loved us hard
     G
Time barely on our hands
Still loved us hard, her care was constant
E
Held us in her arms, she loved us hard
     G
Time held us in her arms
             A
She loved us hard and for the longest
        D
And was nobody's but ours

[Bridge]
Bm                          A
  May part of me live on in you
                                    G
Let your heart bleed and be an open wound
We know time will tend to
Bm                               A
  And as part of you lives on in me
                                G
I'm holding, broken to the same degree
                  C
Knowing time will mend me

[Refrain]
Bm                   A            D
Raised us, shaped us, moulded and made us
     G
Into who we are today and who we plan to stay

[Chorus]
E7                                     E
Time held us in her arms, she loved us hard
        D
Know as she turns to depart
She loved us hard and for the longest
E
Held us in her arms, she loved us hard
           G
So know as she turns to depart
             A
She loved us hard and for the longest
        D
And was nobody's but ours
