Chords for Six O' Clock -The Lovin Spoonful -1966

_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[G] There's something special about six o'clock in the morning when it's [G] still too early to knock
[E] And the dusky light [Am] shines down on the block [E] and reflects up and down [Am] on the hands of the clock
[D] Six [Dm] o'clock, six o'clock _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ Hours [Abm] ago she was standing [Am] _ here _ _ just watching [C] the stars in our eyes and [D] the light says the pipes [G] disappear
And _ _ _ [Em] I could feel I could say what [E] I want, that [Am] I could nudge her and call [A] her my confidante
[G] Now I'm [D] back alone with [C] just my shadow [G] in front
Six o'clock, six o'clock
I went home [Abm] and found the china suit [Am] was a flare
_ _ Just watching [C] my eyelids, knowing [D] my brain bids the night [G] not to pass
I _ _ _ [Em] got up and just got [E] playing around _
[Am] But somehow it just [A] wasn't the same happy time
[G] And the bell didn't [C] ring with the same [G] happy sound
Six o'clock, _ six o'clock
If I go [D] back where we [G] _ parted, could I ever feel like that again?
_ Guess I'll just have to wait till [D] tomorrow
But what can I do still [G] then?
Guess I'll go [Abm] back home and just wait [Am] until dawn
_ _ Guess I had [C] to learn going back where [D] we were wouldn't help [G] at all _ _ _
And [Em] I wish my head had been working [E] right _
[Am] We'd have gone for [A] coffee and talked all night
[G] Now I'm [D] back alone [C] getting twisted [G] up tight
Six o'clock, six o'clock
Now I'm [D] _ [C] home, _ [G] _
home, [D] home
_ _ [C] _ _ [G] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [C] _ [G] _ _
