Verse 1:
A                           G
  Electric waves a rush of energy
                                 A
Silent river pouring backward eternally
                                G
Through the phase and touch of entropy

Old age in the beginner
A                                    G
  To hit the stage and blush wild, laughingly
                              A
Crush the rage and rush time tappingly
G

Call the name so much so vapidly
                      A
Dissolving into thin air
                               G
Turning the two-fork taped up television

Into tunnel vision
A                             G
  Taking the new fork tactile as revision

Working the revision

Chorus:
 D      A
Time escaping
 G      A
Time escaping

Verse 2:
A                           G
  There is no reason to go down alone
                             A
Through distortion’s secret telephone
                      G
Separate contact separate

Poison in the ether
A                            G
  Swinging still incessant pendulum
A
Lavender, nettle, calendula
                           G
Separate, contact, concentrate

Drawing out the fever

Chorus:
 D      A
Time escaping
 G      A
Time escaping

Post-Chorus:
A   G

A        G
  Ether
     A
Time
       G
It's music
           A   G
It's music

Verse 3:
A                           G
  Only the winter wind survives
                                 A
After the heat rush feeds and thrives
                              G
After the bushfire burns and dies

Frozen and bitter
A                             G
  Desert ground so cold and clean
                          A
Spreading out like a magazine
                          G
Reading the dirt like gossip

What do the weeds say? They say
  A                                           G
“Everything, everything, everything falls through
                          A
Each dimension breaks in two
                        G
Like the two hands clapping

Like the two wings flapping
A                                       G
Everything, everything, everything for free
                  A
As it all eventually
                     G
Turns to dust and petal

Molten rock and meadow”

Chorus:
 D      A
Time escaping
 G      A      A
Time escaping
