This is a fairly easy song to play.  Not all the parts are here though,
because I don't have a recording of the song.  I wasn't too sure about the
lyrics,
so in some places I just made them up.
If anyone knows a better way to play this song, please send it to me,
because as far
as I know, this is the only version on the net.

Verse 1:

E
We are a rock revolving
Emaj7
around the golden sun
E7                        A
we are a billion children rolled into one
Amaj7                     E
but when I hear about the hole in the sky
G6        F#min      E
saltwater welting my eyes

Verse 2:

E
We climb the highest mountains
Emaj7
And I'll be going soon
E7                        A
We're so ingenious we can walk on the moon
Amaj7                     E
but when I hear about the hole in the sky
G6        F#min      E
saltwater welting my eyes

Chorus:

A
Time is not a friend
       A7
'cause friends aren't out of time
        F#min
for the world that's dying
    E
and now I'm crying
A
Time is not a friend
       A7
'cause friends aren't out of time
         F#min          C
and it's slowly passing by-y-y-y-y-y
A (slow strum)
right before our eyes
