Verse 1
C#m C#m
It's time to go inward, take a look at myself,
A A
time to make the most of the time that I've got left,
G#sus4 G# C#m C#m
prison bars imagined are no less solid steel.
C#m C#m
Time to go inward, would you believe that I'm afraid,
A A
to stare down the barrel of the choices I have made,
G#sus4 G# C#m C#m
the ghost of bad decisions make mountains out of everything I feel.
Bridge

Outside my window the wind weaves a path through the trees,

the moon takes a shine to the shadows that fall on the leaves.
Verse 2
C#m C#m
It's time to go inward, hmmm,
A A
I don't know if I can do it after all that I've become;
G#sus4 G# C#m C#m
I've been a fool for money but it's vanity that always leaves me flat.
C#m C#m
It's time to go inward, man, I hope I have the nerve
A A
to take an inventory of the causes that I serve.
G#sus4 G#
They say a man without a conscience is like a man
C#m C#m
without a country or something like that.

if I don't do it now I don't believe I ever will.
G#sus4 G#
My mind is like a chatterbox whose noise pollutes
C#m C#m
the pathways to my soul.
C#m C#m
Time to go inward, time to get a grip,
A A
time to put an end to one long bad acid trip;
G#sus4 G# C#m C#m
I'm all out of excuses for the way I've let my choices take a toll.
Bridge

Jesus and Buddah and Krishna and Minnie Pearl knew:

to do unto other the things you want done unto you.
Verse 4
C#m C#m
Time to go inward, take a look at me,
A A
try to make some sense of life's illusions that I see;

try to solve the riddle of what it is I have to offer to this world.
