D (xx0232@1)      G (320003@1)         DTime (xx0232@1)was once just a clock to me
    D (xx0232@1)             G (320003@1)    AAnd (x02220@1)life was just a book a biography
D (xx0232@1)         G (320003@1)                DSuccess (xx0232@1)was something you just had to be
    D (xx0232@1)           G (320003@1)     AAnd (x02220@1)I would spend myself unknowingly


        G (320003@1)         A (x02220@1)             DAnd (xx0232@1)you know that I could have me a million more friends
D (xx0232@1)                                    AAnd (x02220@1)all Id have to lose is my point of view
      D (xx0232@1)                GBut (320003@1)I had no idea what a good time would cost
          A (x02220@1)                              DTill (xx0232@1)last night when I sat and talked with you.


D (xx0232@1)           G (320003@1)          DAn (xx0232@1)apple will spoil if its been abused
  D (xx0232@1)         G (320003@1)                 AA (x02220@1)candle disappears when its been used
  D (xx0232@1)         G (320003@1)         DA (xx0232@1)rainbow may follow up a hurricane 
    D (xx0232@1)             G (320003@1)       AAnd (x02220@1)I cant leave forever on a train


        G (320003@1)             A (x02220@1)       DAnd (xx0232@1)you know that Id survive if I never spoke again
D (xx0232@1)                           AAnd (x02220@1)all Id have to lose is my vanity
      D (xx0232@1)                GBut (320003@1)I had no idea what a good time would cost
          A (x02220@1)                                DTill (xx0232@1)last night when you sat and talked with me.


        D (xx0232@1)           G (320003@1)               DYou (xx0232@1)can smile for the lack of something else to do
    D (xx0232@1)         G (320003@1)                AAnd (x02220@1)no one will laugh and point at you
        D (xx0232@1)         G (320003@1)            DIf (xx0232@1)your tears didnt always make me feel so bad
D (xx0232@1)                       G (320003@1)                A (x02220@1)    
Would you still cry every time that you felt sad? 


  G (320003@1)                  A (x02220@1)            DI (xx0232@1)thought Id heard and seen enough to get along
D (xx0232@1)                                   ATill (x02220@1)you said something neither of us knew
      D (xx0232@1)                GAnd (320003@1)I had no idea what a good time would cost
          A (x02220@1)                              D (xx0232@1)   A (x02220@1)DTill (xx0232@1)last night when I sat and talked with you.
