VERSE:
C
Guess it's just another dream

That's slipping away

Each time I fall asleep

It seems I'm drifting away
C
Just as you have touched my heart
D D7
Babe I wake and we're apart
G D G
Yeah, and it's slipping away
VERSE:
Here comes just another day
That's drifting away
Every time I draw a breath
It's dying away
First the sun and then the moon
G
One of them will be around soon
D G
Slipping away
D G
Slipping away
VERSE:

Slipping away, yeah
Just as you have touched my heart
I wake up babe and we're apart
It seems we're slipping away
Slipping away
Slipping away

Bb Eb
All I want is ecstacy
Bb Eb
But I ain't getting much
Bb Eb
Just getting off on misery
Bb Eb D G
It seems I've lost my touch
VERSE:
Well it's just another song
But it's slipping away
Well we didn't sing it long
'Cos it's fading away
First the sun and then the moon
One of them will be round soon
Slipping away
Slipping away
Slipping away
OUTRO:

| I'm surprised no one else has commented on this song. It's a really great tune to begin with, and the the live version on the stripped album is brilliant. | |

| ive seen this live, i went wild when it came on. that weekend i saw snowpatrol, muse, keane, fratellis and so on. this performance blowed me away; nothing better than the live performance by the almighty richards... not bad for an old guy is he?! :p true legend | |
