Dmaj7 D#dim7                 Em7    Dmaj7
Why don't we stop fooling ourselves?
            D6    Dsus4  Em7
The game is over, over, over
    G        Gm Gm6
No good times,
 D  F#m Bm
no bad times
         G  F#m     Bm
There's no times at all
          Em           D F#/C# Am6/C
Just The New York Times
        Bm7     G
Sitting on the windowsill
          Dmaj7  Gm A A7 Dmaj7
Near the flowers

           F#dim7   Em7   Dmaj7
We might as well be apart
          D6
It hardly matters
   Dsus4         Em7 F#m7 G
We sleep separately
          Gm Gm6 D       F#m    Bm
And drop a smile passing in the hall
             G  F#m    Bm
But there's no laughs left
          Em            D F#/C# Am6/C
'Cause we laughed them all
       Bm7          Em7
And we laughed them all
                 G
In a very short time

G
Time
                 Dmaj7
Is tapping on my forehead
E9              Dmaj7
Hanging from my mirror
E9           F#m
Rattling the teacups
      Em Gm  Dmaj7
And I wonder

       D#dim7    Em7  Dmaj7
How long can I delay?
             D6
We're just a habit
     Dsus4    Em7 F#7 G
Like saccharin
           C9       D       F#m   Bm
And I'm habitually feelin' kinda blue
     G    F#m    Bm D        E9
But each time I try on the thought of leaving you
    D
I stop...
                      Dmaj7
Stop and think it over
