Intro x2

Dadd9 (x43141@2)                        E11 (022232@1)  Waitin', watchin' the clock, it's four o'clock, it's got to stop

Dadd9 (x43141@2)               E11 (022232@1)  Tell him, take no more, she practices her speech

      F13 (1x1233@1)           G6add9
As he opens the door, she rolls over...

   F13 (1x1233@1)                G6add9
Pretends to sleep as he looks her over

D(ring)         A(ring)       G(ring)   D(ring)           A(ring)    G(ring)
   She lies and says she's in love with him, can't find a better man

D(ring)          A(ring)    G(ring)   D(ring)           A (x02220@1)      Asus4 (x02230@1)  She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can't find a better man...

        Can't find a better man


Ohh...


Intro x1

Dadd9 (x43141@2)               E11 (022232@1)  Talkin' to herself, there's no one else who needs to know...

Dadd9 (x43141@2)                     E11 (022232@1)  She tells herself, oh...

Dadd9 (x43141@2)                       E11 (022232@1)  Memories back when she was bold and strong

                    F13 (1x1233@1)    G6add9
And waiting for the world to come along

F13 (1x1233@1)                       G6add9
