Spending My Time

      Am 
What?s the time? 
      Dm           G 
Seems it?s already morning. 
      Am 
I see the sky, 
      Dm            G 
It?s so beautiful and blue. 
      Am 
The TV?s on, 
      Dm            G 
But the only thing showing 
      Dm 
Is a picture of you. 
 
      Am 
Oh, I get up 
      Dm             G 
And make myself some coffee. 
      Am 
I try to read a bit, 
      Dm              G 
But the story?s too thin. 
      Am 
I thank the Lord above 
      Dm               G 
That you?re not here to see me 
      Dm 
In this shape I?m in. 
 
      G 
Spending my time, 
      D 
Watching the days go by. 
      Am 
Feeling so small, 
      C 
I stare at the wall, 
      Am 
Hoping that you 
      D 
Think of me too. 
      G 
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? 
 
Spending my time, 
Watching the days go by. 
Feeling so small, 
I stare at the wall, 
Hoping that you 
Are missing me too. 
I?m spending my time. 
 
Watching the sun go down. 
I fall asleep 
To the sound of "tears of a clown", 
 
A prayer gone blind. 
I?m spending my time. 
 
      Am            C 
My friends keep telling me: 
      G           D 
Hey, life will go on, 
      Am          C             G 
Time will make sure I?ll get over you. 
 
      Am          C 
This silly game of love - 
      G            D 
You play, you win only to lose.
