C                 Dm7 G7
Another shade of gray
                    C   F/C C
Another rolled up sleeve
Am                 Dm7 G7
Another Christmas day
                    C C7
Another New Year's Eve

Chorus:
                  F  G7
But one year must end
                Am
For another to start
C         Dm7 G7
And only time
                  C   F/C C
Can unbreak your heart

Another boat rolls in
Another tide rolls out
Another stranger looking in
Another lover looking out

Chorus:
One love must die
For another to start
And only time
Can unbreak your heart

                 F G7
So when hope is gone
                   Am
And light fades to dark
C             Dm7  G7
Remember that time
                   Am
Will unbreak your heart
C             Dm7 G7
I promise you time
                       C
Will unbreak your heart
