You've been keeping me lonely
A G
You've been keeping me down
A D
And I'm sitting here wondering
E
Why I'm still hanging around
A G
The night's grown cold, babe
A G
Can't you see the signs?
A D
Ah, there's no use wasting
E
This precious time
(N/C) A G
Look out your window
A G
Ah, can't you see?
A
That the sun is getting fast
D E
For you and me
A G
Ah, you've grown hard, babe
A G
Can't you see the signs?
A D
Ah, there's no use wasting
E
This precious time
A D
Well, I should be out seeking
A D
Instead of hiding
A D
Yeah, I should be out laughing
G E
Instead of crying, crying, crying
(N/C) A G
'Coz you've been keeping me lonely
A G
You've been keeping me down
A D
And I'm sitting here thinking to myself
E
Why I'm sticking around
A D
When you no longer hear me
A D
And your eyes can't see
G
What this precious time
E
Means to someone like me
A D
Oh, I wanna start living
A D
Life's for the taking
A D
And I've gotta start living
G E
If I wanna be tasting, tasting, tasting
A F G A
This precious tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime
