E F#m
Oh well her eyes they hypnotised
F#m E
Like a pair of headlights
E F#m
And I remember how she crashed
F#m E
Headlong into my life
E F#m
So I said now close those eyes
F#m E
Stick a pin into this map
E F#m
And then she said now look around
F#m A
Because there'll be no looking back
A G G E
E F#m
Oh but I've been looking since that day
F#m A E
Since the day we parted
E F#m
But you don't find happiness
F#m A G E
When you're searching for it
E F#m
And I might have realised
F#m A
I was wasting precious time
A A E
But I never had the chance to change the batteries in my watch
E A E
Oh and it's a Monday night in June
E E
And I should be sleeping
E A E
But it's so damn warm inside
E E
I'm in the garden dreaming
E A E
And I've got one chair for myself
E F#m
And another for my feet
F#m A G E
Oh but I still don't feel complete
E E E
E F#m
Well she calls me every day
F#m A E
Just to touch base with me
E F#m
And the birds upon the wire
F#m A G E
They feel our electricity
E F#m
And I watch them as they fly
F#m A
And she lifts me up with them
A G E
Until I fall for her again
E E E
E F#m
Oh and I've been working since that day
F#m A E
Since the day I left her
E F#m
I'm making money watching birds
F#m A E
But I don't feel no richer
E F#m
And I should have realised
F#m A
I was wasting precious time
A A E
But I never had the chance to change the batteries in my watch
E A E
Oh and it's a Monday night in June
E
And I should be sleeping
E A E
But it's so damn warm inside
E
I'm in the garden dreaming
E A E
And I've got one chair for myself
E F#m
And another for my feet
F#m A E
But I still don't feel complete
Repeat same chords utill ending the song with
A G
