Intro: C 


verse 1 

C                                
Something is off do you feel it today 

Even the clocks strike a minute too late 
      Dm 
But I try 
              C 
To make it on time 

C 
I miss the bus so I'm walking to school 
                              Dm 
I miss the chance to catch up too 
         C 
I missed you 

Am G Em F C 


verse 2 

C 
I came to visit but you'd just gone away 

I bought a rose but you had a bouquet 
        Dm 
I still try 
              C 
To make it on time 

C 
Like the constellations up in the sky 
                              Dm 
They'll never see the morning light 
             C 
Like you and I 


Pre-Chorus 

Am        G        Em 
I sit and wait here 
        F             C 
Playing house in my mind 
Am             G        Em 
You're running late dear 
        F            C 
Or am I off on the time 


F                G 
 What could have been 
Em         F 
 Makes me stay 
F               G 
 It's so fucked up 
   Em                 F 
I'm just a minute too late 

    F                     G 
But I'll keep making the bed for two 
Em                      F 
 I'll keep making the bed for you 
F                      G 
 I'll keep making the bed for two 
Em                      F 
 I'll keep making the bed for you 

C 


verse 3 

C 
There is a local garden on crescent heights 

You would have loved it if you'd been by my side 
        Dm 
I still try 
              C 
To make it on time 

C 
I heard a waltz it remind me of you 
                                      Dm 
When we were dancing in that half lit room 
C 
(hey) 


Pre-Chorus 

Am         G        Em 
 I sit and wait here 
        F           C 
Playing house in my mind 
Am              G        Em 
 You're running late dear 
        F           C 
Or am I off on the time 


F                G 
 What could have been 
Em         F 
 Makes me stay 
F               G 
 It's so fucked up 
   Em                 F 
I'm just a minute too late 

    F                     G 
But I'll keep making the bed for two 
Em                      F 
 I'll keep making the bed for you 
F                      G 
 I'll keep making the bed for two 
Em                      F 
 I'll keep making the bed for you
