[Em] [G#m] [E] [G#m] [F#]
[B] [E]
[A] Turning on my [B] pillow, [E] thinking kinda [A]
strange
[Bm] The color is [C#] of midnight [F#m] in this room
[B] The [A] car's outside [B] a coffin, and [E] it's kind of hard to [A]
sleep
[G#m] And there's neon out [C#m] the window, [B] not the moon
And it [A] was just an annual [B]
kind of day
[E] The kind that comes [A] and slips away
[E] The kind that fills [G#m] up easy my [F#m] lifestyle
[B] The [A] night brought an [B] annual kind of dark
[E] I heard the ticking [A]
of my heart
[E] Then why am I [G#m] thinking [F#m]
[B] something's left [E] behind?
[A] I whistled [B] round today, and I [E] skipped up a [A] footloose jig
[Bm] To the hurdy-gurdy [C#] music of the [F#m] street
[B]
I [A] looked up past those [B] rooftops, [E] and I saw the cloudless [A] sky
But [G#m] I keep on [A] asking why my [G#m] life is passing [A] by
And [G#m] I'm left up high [A]
and dry, but it [G#m] ain't no good [A] to cry
So [G#m] I shrug [E] my [A] useless side
And [C#m] I trust the things that [B]
other days [E] will mean
And it [A] was just an annual [B]
kind of day
[E] The kind that comes [A] and slips away
[E] The kind that fills up [G#m]
easy my [F#m] lifestyle
The [B] [A] night brought an annual [B]
kind of dark
[E] I heard the ticking [A] of my heart
[E] Then why am [G#m] I [F#m] thinking [B] something's left [E] behind?
[G#m] [F#]
[B] [E]
[A] The night has [B] had its laughing
[E] When the streetlights [A] blind [F#m] the stars
[Bm] So now it's shedding [C#]
rain [F#m] to sing its sorrow, [B]
sorrow
[A] It's time for me to [B]
sleep and [E] to rest these thoughts [A] away
There's [G#m] gonna be another [A]
day
[G#m] When things will go [A] my way
And [G#m] there's other things to [A] say
And [G#m] there's other [E] songs [A] to play
And there'll [C#m] be time enough [B] for thinking [E] come tomorrow
And it [A] was just an annual [B]
kind of day
The [E] kind that [A] comes and slips away
[E] The kind that [G#m] fills up easy my [F#m] lifestyle
[B] The [A] night brought an [B] annual kind of dark
[E] I heard the ticking [A]
of my heart
[E] Then why am [G#m] I [F#m] thinking [B] something's left [E] behind?
Why am I thinking [F#] something's [E] left behind?
[G#m]
[F#] [B] [E]
[Em]
