Sign of the Times Lyrics & Tabs by Kevin Coyne
Sign of the Times
guitar chords lyrics
Wild palms in the hinterland
Stretches of yellow sand
A blue bird trapped in my hand
It's hard to understand
It must be a sign of the times - times
It must be a sign of the time - time - time - time - time
My friend can't talk no more
He just gazes at his kitchen floor
Building a boat that will never float
Packing it with animals and bags of oats
Must be yes a sign of the times - times
It must be a sign of the times - sign of the times
Oh give me a sign
Oh what is the sign?
Oh what is their line?
Oh give me a sign
Oh what is the sign?
Oh what is their line?
Oh a sign - a sign - any sign - any line - any time - any sigh - any lie - not mine - not mine
I'm building
What am I building?
I'm working
Why am I working?
My hands are clean and never dirty
I wear something and it hurts me
Must be my sign of the times
Must be yes my sign of the times
Sign of the times
Must be - give me a sign
Oh any sign
Oh any sign
Oh any line - any sign - any rhyme - any time - not mine
It's not mine It's not mine It's not mine It's not mine It's not mine
My mother, she knows
I really think she knows
Taken to painting her toes
Taken to wear those odd clothes
Must be a sign of the times - times
Must be a sign of the times - times - sign of the times
So you can help me
Let me know you can help me
Make it a positive sign
Cos this face is not really mine
Must be a sign of my mind - mind - mind
Must be a sign of the times - sign of the time
A sign of the times
My face is not mine
My face is not mine
