[intro]
Cadd9   G   D-Dsus4-D   Am7

[verse]
Cadd9              G             D-Dsus4-D
All I needed was a little grace 
          Am7
To take a second out
Just some time to recuperate
And take a second out

Overloaded it was hard to find me
I had to let it out
Rested up I left it all behind me
Was just a second out

[chorus]
     C G11 F     C G11 F
Well time is the healer
Am           Am7/G    D
Don't let it pass you by
Well time is the healer
But oh how it flies

Fadd9
       C         G   F
Take a second out
Take a second out

[verse]
I never noticed how things had changed
I was missing out
Everything had been rearranged 
I never listened out

Out of touch with everyone around me
They were moving out
I'd given much and yet I'd found me
To be losing out

[chorus]
Well time is the healer
Don't let it pass you by
Well time is the healer
But oh how it flies

Take a second out
Take a second out

[chorus]
Well time is the healer
Don't let it pass you by
Well time is the healer
But oh how it flies

Take a second out
Take a second out

Take a second out
