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