            Bm               D5           E
 What's the time? Seems it's already morning

           Bm           D5              Esus4  E
 I see the sky, it's so beautiful and blue

          Bm          D5          E
 The tv's on, but the only thing showing

                 B     Bm
 is a picture of you

          Bm       D5                 E
 Oh I get up and make myself some coffee

          Bm          D5                   Esus4  E
 I try to read a book but the story's to thin

             Bm              D5                 E
 I thank the lord above that you're not here to see me

                  B     Bm
 in the shape I'm in


             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

                     E
 I'm spending my time

 I try to call but I don't know what to tell you


 I leave a kiss on your answering machine


 Oh help me please, is there someone who can make me


 wake up from this dream?

             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    Bm
 a prayer gone blind


 I'm spending my time


F#m        A                 E
 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

E                  B             D    (E)
 You play, you win only to lose.


           F#                 C#
 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#m
 a prayer gone blind

 [Repeat to fade]

 Esus4 (I think) is either played with a capo on the 2nd fret,
 or barred at the 7th, like this:

e: 5   7
B: 5   10
G: 4   9
D: 2   9
A: x   7
E: x   7
