Belle and Sebastian - Give A Little Time: chords

                 D
Think about the time
              Em
These are the best of days
              D                         Em
You hold the world in the palm of your hand
           D
You've got one, two, three, four
  E
Who needs more?
   Bm              Em
An army at your command

Chorus:
D                      Em
Suddenly, you don't belong
(suddenly, you don't belong)
    D              Em
And if the others treat you wrong
(and if the others treat you wrong)
D              B
Draw closer, try to make the most of…
Em                          A
You don't have the time to waste time

Once upon a time, you had the best of friends
You were alive in each other's minds
Read a likeness in your words
Are you ever going to send that letter you find?

Chorus:
You never say "I told you so"
(You never say "I told you so")
You never tell me how you know
(Never tell me how you know)
Come closer, try to make the most of
You don't have the time to waste time

Em                     A
Destroy your correspondence
Em                      A
You read it back, it's nonsense
F#m           B
Old letters, feed them to the shredder
Em                       A
You can let the past be silent
Em            A
Speculate, accumulate
Em                  A
Embrace the love, erase the hate
F#m            B
Move closer, try to make the most of
Em                     A
Give a little time to make time
Em                     A
Give a little time to make time
Em                 A
Give a little time
Em                     A
Give a little time to make time
