C#m I turn my back to the wind A E To catch my breath before I start off again B Driven on without a moment to spend To pass an evening A B With a drink and a friend I let my skin get too thin I'd like to pause, no matter what I pretend Like some pilgrim who learns to transcend Learns to live as if each step was the end Chorus: A E (Time stand still) C#m I'm not looking back B But I want to look around me now A E (Time stand still) C#m See more of the people B And the places that surround me now A B Time stand still E C#m Freeze this moment B A little bit longer A F#m Make each sensation E A little bit stronger D A E Experience slips away D A B Experience slips away A B Time stand still C#m I turn my face to the sun A Close my eyes E Let my defenses down All those wounds B That I can't get unwound I let my past go too fast No time to pause If I could slow it all down Like some captain, whose ship runs aground I can wait until the tide comes around Chorus: (Time stand still) I'm not looking back But I want to look around me now (Time stand still) See more of the people And the places that surround me now Freeze this moment A little bit longer Make each sensation A little bit stronger Make each impression A little bit stronger Freeze this motion A little bit longer The innocence slips away The innocence slips away Time stand still Time stand still Chorus: I'm not looking back But I want to look around me now See more of the people And the places that surround me now Summer's going fast Nights growing colder Children growing up Old friends growing older Freeze this moment A little bit longer Make each sensation A little bit stronger Experience slips away Experience slips away The innocence slips away You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  C#m  D  E  F#m  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
