A#m
Whatʼs the time?
D#mG#
Seems itʼs already morning.
A#m
I see the sky,
D#mG#
Itʼs so beautiful and blue.
A#m
The TVʼs on,
D#mG#
But the only thing showing
D#m
Is a picture of you.
A#m
Oh, I get up
D#mG#
And make myself some coffee.
A#m
I try to read a bit,
D#mG#
But the storyʼs too thin.
A#m
I thank the Lord above
D#mG#
That youʼre not here to see me
D#m
In this shape Iʼm in.
G#
Spending my time,
D#
Watching the days go by.
A#m
Feeling so small,
C#
I stare at the wall,
A#m
Hoping that you
D#
Think of me too.
G#
Iʼm spending my time.
A#m
I try to call
D#mG#
But I donʼt know what to tell you.
A#m
I leave a kiss
D#mG#
On your answering machine.
A#m
Oh, help me please,
D#mG#
Is there someone who can make me
D#m
Wake up from this dream?
G#
Spending my time,
D#
Watching the days go by.
A#m
Feeling so small,
C#
I stare at the wall,
A#m
Hoping that you
D#
Think of me too.
G#
Iʼm spending my time.
A#m
Watching the sun go down.
D#mG#
I fall asleep to the sound
A#m
Of "tears of a clown",
D#mG#
A prayer gone blind.
D#m
Iʼm spending my time.
A#mC#
My friends keep telling me:
G#D#
Hey, life will go on,
A#mC#G#
Time will make sure Iʼll get over you.
A#mC#
This silly game of love -
G#D#
You play, you win only to lose.
