Push Back The Hands Of Time

They Might Be Giants

key: Dm Tuning: E A D G B E
F Bb

[Verse]
F
You would give up your right arm to go back
Aaug
To when you had a right arm
F
You'll need some muscles to move it backward
Aaug
Push back the hands of time

[Pre-Chorus]
Dm              D#dim
Broken glass is glittering like diamonds
Bb                           G7
Can't hear yourself thinking over the sirens
F                      Bb
Push back the hands of time
F                      Bb
Push back the hands of time
Gm                C#dim
You wanna sing to drown out the car horn
F/C                        Bdim
Squeeze your eyes shut and scream like a newborn
Bb             C5     F
Like a newborn babe

[Verse]
F
Dawn breaks like a fallen vase
Aaug
Push back the hands of time
F
Unwelcome vision of rosy fingers
Aaug
Push back the hands of time


[Pre-Chorus]
Dm                            D#dim
It wouldn't help you if you'd had any sleep
Bb                            G7
It wouldn't save you from the mission creep
F                      Bb
Push back the hands of time
F                      Bb
Push back the hands of time
Gm                   C#dim
Screeching tires but never a collision
F/C                   Bdim
Endless day without a sunset provision
Bb      C5
Endless day

Gm                C#dim

F/C                        Bdim
Squeeze your eyes shut and scream like a newborn

Like a newborn babe
