Verse 1:

E 
I'm checking your pulse 
I'm giving you air 
A 
But your body disagrees 
E 
And no it don't care at all 
Em7 
I'm wasting my time 
E 
Now your eyes roll awake 
You're looking at me 
A 
You say Darling what happened 
Did I fall asleep? 
B 
And you carry me home 
E    (let it ring) 
Cause I know I wasn't here 


E 
I'm closing your blinds 
I'm shutting your eyes 
A 
And now I 
E 
I'm afraid I have to go 
A 
Whoa 

E 
I'd sing you a song 
But i'm feeling quite off 
A 
In my heart 
E 
It's occupied 
A 
And now's not the time 

verse 2: 

E 
Let's try this again 
And this time don't laugh 
A 
Cause I'm working on my sentences 
E 
I'm working on my play on words 
Em7 
I'll get it this time 
E 
If I am a clock 
Than your are the time 
A 
I'm patiently waiting 
When you're out of line 
B 
And i'll be the question 
E     (let it ring) 
If you'll be the answer 


E 
I'm closing your blinds 
I'm shutting your eyes 
A 
And now I 
E 
I'm afraid I have to go 
A 
Whoa 

E 
I'd sing you a song 
But i'm feeling quite off 
A 
In my heart 
E 
It's occupied 
A 
And now's not the time 

Bridge:

A 
If I am a clock 
Than your are the time 
E 
I'm patiently waiting 
When you're out of line 
A 
I'm counting the times 
When you've lied to my face 
E 
my hands were full 
Not a second to waste (2x) 



E 
I'm closing your blinds 
I'm shutting your eyes 
A 
And now I 
E 
I'm afraid I have to go 
A 
Whoa 

E 
I'd sing you a song 
But i'm feeling quite off 
A 
In my heart 
E 
It's occupied 
A 
And now's not the time 
E 
The time
