"Out of Time" is a song by Blur and was released as the lead single from their seventh album Think Tank in 2003 (see 2003 in British music). The song is a bass-driven ballad with minimal drums and only acoustic guitar. Its forlorn lyrics complement the music, making it a haunting piece of music. It reached #5 in the UK singles chart. "Out of Time" was Blur's first release for three years and also the band's first release without guitarist Graham Coxon.
