Roxette - Spending My Time
Capo 2nd fret in the video
(acoustic version - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOSp8icSHXg)
G* 355433

Verse 1

What's the time? Seems it's already morning
I see the sky, it's so beautiful and blue
The TV's on, but the only thing showing
is a picture of you 
Oh, I get up and make myself some coffee
I try to read a book but the story's too thin
I thank the Lord above that you're not here to see me
in the shape I'm in 

Chorus

Spending my time watching the days go by
Bm G*
Feeling so small I stare at the wall
Hoping that you think of me too
I'm spending my time

Verse 2

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? 

Chorus

Spending my time watching the days go by
Bm G*
Feeling so small I stare at the wall
Hoping that you are missing of me too
I'm spending my time watching the sun go down
Bm G*
I fall asleep to the sound of "Tears of a Clown"
A prayer gone blind 
I'm spending my time

Bridge

My friends keep telling me: hey, life will go on,
time will make sure I'll get over you
This silly game of love
You play, you win only to lose 

Chorus

Spending my time watching the days go by
Feeling so small I stare at the wall
Hoping that you are missing of 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
