Verse 3 [chords as per verse 2]:

The sun seeps through the window to see if we're still dead

To try to throw some light upon the gloom around our bed

At quarter past the doorbell rings, the water faucet drips and sings

And still my reason will not rhyme, and still you tell me its not time

[repeat chorus]

[repeat intro; end cold on D]
