SOL FAsus2
There's something special 'bout six o'clock
SOL FAsus2
In the morning when it's still too early to knock
MI LAm/MI
And the dusky light shines down on the block
MI7 LAm/MI
And reflects up and down on the hands of the clock
Fsus2 [as above, 4X; alarm clock enters 3rd time]
Six o'clock, six o'clock
Verse 1:
SOL SOL#dim LAm
A few hours ago she was standing here
DO RE
Just watching the stars in our eyes and the lights as the tights
SOL
disappeared
MIm MI
And I could feel I could say what I want
LAm LA
That I could nudge her and call her my confidante
SOL RE DO SOL
But now I'm all alone with just my shadow in front
Fsus2/G [2 bars]
At six o'clock, six o'clock
Verse 2:
I went home and found that time to sleep was rare
Just watching my eyelids, knowing my brain bids the night not
to care
I got up and got scufflin' around
But somehow it just wasn't the same happy town
And the bells didn't ring with the same happy sound
At six o'clock, six o'clock
Bridge:
FA/SOL SOL
If I go back where we parted
FA/SOL SOL
Could I ever feel like that again
FA/SOL SOL
Guess I'll just have to wait 'til tomorrow
RE REsus4
But what can I do 'til then
Verse 3:
Guess I'll go back home and just wait until dawn
Yes, I had to learn going back where we were wouldn't help at all
And I wish my head had been working right
We'd have gone for coffee and talked all night
And now I'm back alone, bein' twisted up tight
Six o'clock, six o'clock
Coda:
SOL RE DO SOL
Now I'm back alone
SOL RE DO SOL
Yes, now I'm back alone
SOL RE DO SOL
I'm back alone
G D C G [repeat to fade]
