The Whole song is finger picked, but the verse has a unique pattern.
|---------|
|--1--1-1-|
|-0--0-0--|

For the rest of the song, you can use the same type of pattern, but modify it for
the chords being used
Intro: F, G, C/E, F X2
C (picking pattern)
Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick,
And think of you
Caught up in circles confusion -
Is nothing new
Flashback - warm nights -
Almost left behind
Suitcases of memories,
Time after -
C (picking pattern)
Sometimes you picture me -
I'm walking too far ahead
You're calling to me, I can't hear
What you've said -
Then you say - go slow -
I fall behind -
The second hand unwinds
[Chorus:] (Regular C in the chorus)
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
Time after time [X2]
C (picking pattern)
After my picture fades and darkness has
Turned to gray
Watching through windows - you're wondering
If I'm OK
Secrets stolen from deep inside
The drum beats out of time -
[Chorus:]
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
Time after time [X2]
Then you say - go slow -
I fall behind -
The second hand unwinds
[Chorus:]
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
Time after time [X2]
...Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
