Spending My Time
Tune to C
[Verse]
F#m Bm E
What's the time? Seems it's already morning
F#m Bm Esus4 E
I see the sky, it's so beautiful and blue
F#m Bm E
The tv's on, but the only thing showing
B Bm
is a picture of you
F#m Bm E
Oh I get up and make myself some coffee
F#m Bm Esus4 E
I try to read a bit but the story's to thin
F#m Bm E
I thank the lord above that you're not here to see me
B Bm
in the shape I'm in
[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 think of me too
C#m
I'm spending my time
[Verse]
F#m Bm E
I try to call but I don't know what to tell you
F#m Bm E
I leave a kiss on your answering machine
F#m Bm E
Oh help me please, is there someone who can make me
B Bm
wake up from this dream?
[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
C#m
I'm spending my time
[Verse]
F#m A E D
My friends keep telling me: hey life will go on,
F#m A E
time will make sure I'll get over you.
F#m A
This silly game of love

You play, you win only to lose.....whoaoahoah
[Chorus]

Spending my time watching the days go by
D#m B
Feeling so small I stare at the wall
G#m B C#
hoping that you are missing of me too
F# C#
I'm spending my time watching the sun go down
D#m B
I fall asleep to the sound of "Tears of a Clown"
G#m C#
a prayer gone blind
D#m
I'm spending my time
