Elton John
Come down in time
===============
Am7 Bm7
In the quiet, silent seconds I
Am7 Bm7
I turned off the light switch and I
Cmaj7 Bm7
I came down to meet you
Dm7 E7sus4 E7
in the half-light the moon left while a
Am7 Bm7
cluster of night jars sang some
Am7 Bm7
songs out of tune.
Cmaj7 Bm7
A mantel of bright light shone
Dm7 E7sus4 E7
down from her (a?) room
Chorus:
Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7 Cmaj7
Come down in time, I still hear her say
Fmaj7 Em7 Dm7 Cmaj7
So clear in my ear, like it was today.
Fmaj7 Ab Cmaj Bm7 Am7 Gm7
Come down in time was the message she gave
Fmaj7 Ebmaj7 Dm7 F C/G D
Come down in time and I'll meet you half way.
Well, I don't know if I should have
heard her as yet but a
a true love like ours is a
a hard love to get and I
I've walked most all the way and I
I ain't heard her call and I
I'm getting to thinking if she's
coming at all.
Chorus
Am7 Bm7
Am7 Bm7
There are women and women and
Am7 Bm7
some hold you tight while
Cmaj7 Bm7
some leave you counting the
Em7 Bm7 F C/G D
stars in the night
