Ballad Of Barry Allen

Am C G F

                Am                          C
I've got time to think about the beauty of a thousand variations
      G
Of the beating of a wing
    F                            Am
Of a hummingbird suspended in the aspic of a world
      C
Moving slower than molasses
      G
As i'm off to catch the girl
      F
Who is falling off the bridge

       F
And I'm there before she knows it
       G
I'll be gone before she sees me
      Am
Got my hand around her waist
    C
As I pull her back to safety
      F
By the time she knows what happens
             G
There will be someone else who needs me
       Am                  C
Because time keeps dragging on
   F       E       Am   C
And on, And on, And on
G                  F
Time keeps dragging on

                Am                       C
I've got time to think about my past as I dodge
                          G
Between the bullets how my life was so exciting
F                            Am
Before I got this way and how long ago it was now
 C                        G
I never can explain by the clock that's on the Tower
      F
Or the one that's in my brain

       F
And I'm there before you know it
       G
I'll be gone before you see me
       Am
And I'd like to get to know you
          C
But you're talking much too slowly
     F
And I know you'd really like me
     G
But I never stick around
       Am                  C
Because time keeps dragging on
   F       E
And on, And on

       Am                 C
And you say the time goes rushing by
      G                F
But it seems so slow to me
       Am            C
And you see a blur around you fly
      G
But it takes too long
  F                Am  C  G  F
It seems so slow to me

                   Am
I should have never gone into my lab to
   C                        G
Experiment that night before lightning flashed around me
   F
And time changed speed
             Am                                C
Now I have to try to be so patient and wait for calamity to strike
            G
Because when things change in an instant
           F
It's almost fast enough for me

           F
And I'll be there before you know it
       G
I'll be gone before you see me
          Am
And do you think you can imagine
C
Anything so lonely
     F
And I know you'd really like me
     G
But I never stick around
       Am                  C
Because time keeps dragging on
   F       E
And on, And on
[Bridge](x2)
       Am                 C
And you say the time goes rushing by
      G                F
But it seems so slow to me
       Am                           C
And you complain I'm gone before you blink your eye
      G
But it takes too long
  F
It seems so slow
       Am                 C
And you say the time goes rushing by
      G                F
But it seems so slow to me
             Am                C
And I want to be there when you laugh or cry
      G
But it takes too long
  F                Am  C  G  F
It seems so slow to me
Am C G F
