 E
Red dress, spilled wine
 G#m
Caught in a stupid fight
 B
He's wrong, she's right
 F#
No kiss goodnight
 E
Ring ring, telephone
G#m
Act like I'm not home
 B
Can't hear the tears cry
F#                       E
On the other end of the line

                        G#m
And the minutes turn to hours
             F#                 E
And they're flying like a jet plane
                           G#m
And we'll make it right tomorrow
                      F#
But tomorrow's not a sure thing

Chorus:
      E          G#m         F#
The clock don't stop ticking away
      E          G#m           F#
The clock don't stop ticking away, away
        E
Always hanging on the wall
    G#m
No, it don't care at all
           F#
It won't slow down, it won't wait
      E          G#m           F#
The clock don't stop ticking away,
it's ticking away

Head's scared, heart broke
Burned from a band of gold
Rather just be alone (Burns, just a bad joke)
Bang bang on a drum
You're not a setting sun
You ain't even close to done (Run, baby, run run)

Chorus:
The clock don't sto-o-o-op tickin' away
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
The clock don't sto-o-o-op tickin' away
Away
Always hanging on the wall
No, it don't care at all
It won't slow down; it won't wait
The clock don't sto-o-o-op tickin' away
It's tickin' away
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Red dress, spilled wine
Caught in a stupid fight
I'm wrong, you're right
Kiss me goodnight

Chorus:
The clock don't sto-o-o-op tickin' away
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
The clock don't sto-o-o-op tickin' away
Away
Always hanging on the wall
No, it don't care at all
It won't slow down; it won't wait
The clock don't sto-o-o-op tickin' away
It's tickin' away
Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Red dress, spilled wine
Caught in a stupid fight
I'm wrong, you're right)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Clock don't sto-o-o-op tickin' away)

Clock don't sto-o-o-op tickin' away
