[F#m] What's the time?
Seems [Bm] it's [E] already morning
I see the [F#m] sky, it's [D] so beautiful [A] and [E] blue
The [F#m] TV's on, [D] but the only [E] thing showing
Is a picture [B] of you
[Bm]
Oh, I [F#m] get up [Bm] and make myself [E] some coffee
I try [F#m] to read a bit, [D] but the story's too [E] thin
I thank [F#m] the Lord above, [D] you're not here [E] to see me
In the shape [B] I'm in
[Bm] Spending my [E] time
Watching [B] the day it's over
Feeling so [C#m] small
I stare at the [A] wall
Hoping that [F#m] you [A] think of me [B] too
Spending my [C#m] time
I [E]
try [F#m] to call, [Bm] but I don't know what [E] to tell you
I leave [F#m] the keys [D] for your answering [E] machine
Oh, help [F#m] me [D] please, is there someone who [E] can make me
Wake up from this [B] dream?
[Bm] Spending my [E] time
Watching [B] the day it's gone
Feeling so [C#m] small
I stare at the [A] wall
Hoping that [F#m] you [A] are missing me [B] too
Spending [E] my time
Watching [B] the sun
I fall asleep to the [C#m] sound
Of tears on my [A] mouth
Red [F#m] on black
[B] I'm spending my [C#m] time
[E] My
[F#] [A] friends keep telling me
[E] Hey, life [D] will go on
[F#] Make [A] sure I [E] get over you
[F#m] [A] I really gave [E] up
To play [B] you with only [D] tears
[D#] Oh, oh, [C#] oh
[F#] Spending my time
Watching [C#] the day
[F#]
[C#] Feeling so [D#m] small
I stare at the [B] wall
Hoping that [G#m] you [B] think of [C#] me too
[F#]
Watching [C#] the sun
I fall asleep to the [D#m] sound
Of tears on my [B] mouth
Red [G#m] on black
[C#]
I'm spending [D#m] my time
[F#] [B] [C#]
[F#] [G#] So [G#m] [B] [C#]
[F#] [B] [C#] small
I [F#] can't play [G#] with
[G#m] [B] [C#]
[F#] You
[B] [C#]
[F#] I'm spending [G#] my time
[G#m] [B] [C#]
Spending [F#] without you, honey, honey
[B] Spending [C#] my time
[F#] [G#] [G#m] [B] [C#]
[F#] [B] [C#]
[F#] [G#] [N]
