Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Time goes by so slowly

Time goes by so slowly

Time goes by so slowly

Time goes by so slowly

[Rit]

Every little thing that you say or do

 I'm hung up

 I'm hung up on you

Waiting for your call

 Baby night and day

 I'm fed up

I'm tired of waiting on you

Chorus

Time goes by so slowly for those who wait

 No time to hesitate

Those who run seem to have all the fun

 I'm caught up

 I don't know what to do

Time goes by so slowly

Time goes by so slowly

Time goes by so slowly

I don't know what to do

[Rit] (x2)

Chorus 2

Ring ring ring goes the telephone

The lights are on but there's no-one home

Tick tick tock it's a quarter to two

And I'm done

I'm hanging up on you

[Rit]

I just can't keep on waiting for you

I know that you're still hesitating

Don't cry for me

 'cause I'll find my way

you'll wake up one day

 but it'll be too late

[Rit]
