Standard (EADGBE)

I lie here waiting in the dark

For the morning light

To come around

Counting the cracks up on the wall

I'm distracted by

Every single sign

As I watch the seconds tick away

I only wish there were less hours in the day

Cause I've grown addicted to your touch

You know that I've got a craving

I need it so much

Chorus

Time passes so slowly

When you're far away

This is the last time that

I leave you this way

Verse

I'm listening to the ticking clock

Watching at the hands creeping round and round

Just like a kid kept after school

Only difference is

I'm a grown man now

Sometimes I stop and wonder why

I'm spending every night alone

Just killing time

But I guess that's just the price you pay

Oh but it feels like I'm wishing my life away

Chorus

Time passes so slowly

When you're far away

This is the last time that

I leave you this way

Bridge

I know it won't be long

Till I'm back in your loving arms

I won't be right

I'm letting my impressions

Get the better of me

I can't take it any longer

I need you baby

Chorus

You Know time passes so slowly

When you're far away

This is the last time that

I leave you this way

Verse

Sometimes I stop and wonder why

I'm spending every night alone

Just killing time

But I guess that's just the price you pay

Oh but it feels like I'm wishing my life away

Chorus

Time passes so slowly

When you're far away

This is the last time that

I leave you this way

Time passes so slowly

When you're far away

This is the last time that

I leave you this way

Repeat Chorus and Fade . . .
