The Ticks of the Clock Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Between the tic[G]ks of the clo[Abdim]ck
And the [D]beats of my [Bm]heart
[D]It's about to drive me insane

[Verse 2]
[D]
Oh [A]why she's never on time
[D]She should have been here
Since a quarter 'til nine
[A]What could be keeping her so long
Well [D]is she in another mans arms
Do [Abdim]we

[Verse 3]
[A]still have our date
[D]I won't know until it's too lat[A]e
Could be my bad luck
[D]Maybe she done stood me up

[Verse 4]
[G]She thinks [Abdim]that I'm lame[D]
The way [G]she treats me's
[Abdim]a crying shame[D]
Between the [G]ticks of the [Abdim]clock
And the [D]beats of my [Bm]heart
[D]It's about to drive me ins[Dm]ane
[D]Oh why,

[Verse 5]
[A]she haven't got here yet[D]
She's the meanest girl I've ever met
[A]Could she still be at home
I [D]think I'll try to call her on the phone
[Abdim]Her

[Verse 6]
[A]Mother answered the [D]phone
And said that she had already [A]gone
I should let her go
But [D]oh, I love her [Em]so
[D]She

[Verse 7]
[G]thinks that [Abdim]I'm lame[D]
But the [G]way she treats me's a
cry[Abdim]ing shame[D]
Between the [G]ticks of the [Abdim]clock
And the [D]beats of my [Bm]heart
It's [D]about to drive me insane

[Interlude 1]

[G][Abdim][D][Bm][D]

[Verse 8]
Oh [A]why she's never on time
[D]She should have been here
Since a quarter 'til nine
[A]What could be keeping her so long
Oh, [D]is she in another mans arms

[Verse 9]
Do we [A]still have our date
[D]I won't know until it's too lat[A]e
Could be my bad luck
[D]Maybe she done stood me up

[Verse 10]
She [G]thinks [Abdim]that I'm lame[D]
The way [G]she treats me's
[Abdim]a crying [D]shame
Between the [G]ticks of the [Abdim]clock
And the [D]beats of my [Bm]heart
It's [D]about to drive me insane
[Em]Betw[D]een the

[Verse 11]
[G]ticks of the [Abdim]clock
And the [D]beats of my [Bm]heart
[D]It's about to drive me insane
