[G]* 355433
Verse 1
[Em] [Am] [D]
What's the time? Seems it's already morning
[Em] [C] [Dadd9]
I see the sky, it's so beautiful and blue
[Em] [C] [D]
The TV's on, but the only thing showing
[A] [Am]
is a picture of you
[Em] [Am] [D]
Oh, I get up and make myself some coffee
[Em] [C] [Dadd9]
I try to read a book but the story's too thin
[Em] [C] [D]
I thank the Lord above that you're not here to see me
[A] [Am]
in the shape I'm in
Chorus
[D] [A]
Spending my time watching the days go by
[Bm] [G]*
Feeling so small I stare at the wall
[Em] [G] [A]
Hoping that you think of me too
[Bm]
I'm spending my time
Verse 2
[Em] [Am] [D]
I try to call but I don't know what to tell you
[Em] [C] [Dadd9]
I leave a kiss on your answering machine
[Em] [C] [Dadd9]
Oh, help me please, is there someone who can make me
[A] [Am]
wake up from this dream?
Chorus
[D] [A]
Spending my time watching the days go by
[Bm] [G]*
Feeling so small I stare at the wall
[Em] [G] [A]
Hoping that you are missing of me too
[D] [A]
I'm spending my time watching the sun go down
[Bm] [G]*
I fall asleep to the sound of "Tears of a Clown"
[Em] [A]
A prayer gone blind
[Bm]
I'm spending my time
Bridge
[Em] [G] [D] [C]
My friends keep telling me: hey, life will go on,
[Em] [G] [D]
time will make sure I'll get over you
[Em] [G]
This silly game of love
[D] [A] [C] [B]
You play, you win only to lose
Chorus
[E] [B]
Spending my time watching the days go by
[C#m] [A]
Feeling so small I stare at the wall
[F#m] [A] [B]
Hoping that you are missing of me too
[E] [B]
I'm spending my time watching the sun go down
[C#m] [A]
I fall asleep to the sound of "Tears of a Clown"
[F#m] [B]
A prayer gone blind
