[Verse 1]
Let it [Am] never be said, the [Em] romance is dead

Due to [Am] lack of interest, to [Em] morrow is cancelled
Let the [Bm] clock's be reset, and the [D] pendulum's held
Cause there' [Am] s nothing I'm told, except [Em] the space in between
Finding [Bm] out what you're called, and re [D] peating your name (stop)
  
[Chorus - Add chorus riff]

[Bridge - No drums]
[Em] Could it be, could it be, that you're [C] joking with me
And you [Am] don't really don't see, you and [D] me [D#] 
[Em] Could it be, could it be, that you're [C] joking with me
And you [Am] don't really don't see, you and [D] me [D#]
