A Matter of Time

My first attempt at a Killers song chords Standard Tuning: No Capo Em You're looking for a way out Em I can feel it Em Come on, show me where it hurts Em Maybe I can heal it Em Your feelings are your own Em Now you keep 'em under lock and key Em You got me drivin' through the streets Em For an answer to the mystery G D A The world's still weak on Charleston Avenue G D A Outside that vacant Starlight Motel I see you G D Laughing with your girlfriends A D A Em Not a care in the world, not a burden on your mind Em It was a matter of time Em There's a panic in this house Em and it's bound to surface Em Just walkin' through the front door Em makes me nervous Em It's creepin' up the floorboards, Em got me wondering where I stand Em I cannot put out the fire, Em I got a book of matches in my hand G D A When we first met, headstrong and filled with doubt G D A Made just enough hustling tables that summer to take you out G D A D I was fallin' back on forever when you told me about your heart A Em You laid it on the line G D Laughing with your girlfriends A D A G Not a care in the world, not a burden on your mind (You laid it on the line) G A D A G It was just a matter, It was a matter of time G A We found ourselves a place D G We belong in it forever D A Ain't that what it's all about? G A Make the promise and keep it D G Come hell or high water D A G We'd figure it out G A It was the night, it was the moon D G It was the green grass in the garden G A The victory and the sin G A I know you're weary, look at me D G Flailin' in the corner G Here's the towel A G Go on, throw it in G D G It was a matter of time G D A Can't you see that it's tearing me up inside? G A Look what's laying at our feet G A That's the wreckage of broken dreams D A And burned out G A G And it's here on our street
