[Verse]
            Em               C        D
 What's the time? Seems it's already morning
           Em           C              Dadd9
 I see the sky, it's so beautiful and blue
          Em          C          D
 The tv's on, but the only thing showing
                 A   Am
 is a picture of you
          Em     C                D
 Oh I get up and make myself some coffee
          Em                  C          Dadd9
 I try to read a book but the story's to thin                                        
             Em              C                  D
 I thank the lord above that you're not here to see me
                  A Am
 in the shape I'm in

[Chorus]
             D                  A
 Spending my time watching the days go by
            Bm                    G (barred 3rd fret)
 Feeling so small I stare at the wall
             Em  G           A
 hoping that you think of me too
                 Bm
 I'm spending my time

[Verse]
          Em         C                  D
 I try to call but I don't know what to tell you
           Em           C             Dadd9
 I leave a kiss on your answering machine
            Em                C              Dadd9
 Oh help me please, is there someone who can make me
                      A   Am
 wake up from this dream?

[Chorus]
             D                 A
 Spending my time watching the days go by
            Bm                     G (barred 3rd fret)
 Feeling so small I stare at the wall
             Em      G             A
 hoping that you are missing of me too
                 D                 A
 I'm spending my time watching the sun go down
                      Bm                    G (barred 3rd fret)
 I fall asleep to the sound of "Tears of a Clown"
            Em       A
 a prayer gone blind
                 Bm
 I'm spending my time

[Verse]
Em          G                    D            C
 My friends keep telling me: hey life will go on,
Em        G                   D
 time will make sure I'll get over you.
Em          G
 This silly game of love
     D             A        C    B
 You play, you win only to lose.

[Chorus]
             E                 B
 Spending my time watching the days go by
            C#m (barred 4th fret) 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      B
 a prayer gone blind

 [Outro]
  A B E F#m
  A B E

 [Repeat to fade]
