Clockwork chords by Dalton Rapattoni

Verse:
              A
She’s got a four leaf clover
                       F#m
on a cigarette in her mouth
                      E
and time is ticking out
                      D
her luck is running out
                A
she’s got his promise ring
                               F#m
in the bottom of her bedside drawer
                          E
and she still wants him more
                       D
sprawled out on the floor

and tears are running down her

Pre-Chorus:
E
face the fact that it’s never gonna work out
D
momma says he’s not up to snuff
     E
she looks up and asks god if
                     D
he’ll give them a chance

but he never does

Chorus:
         A
and it acts like clockwork
      F#m                  E
the midnight heartache’s right on time
         A
and it acts like clockwork
         F#m             E
the regular breakdown’s half past nine
        D
and you tell them that you’re fine

Verse:
            A
he’s got a chip on his shoulder
                             F#m
and he can’t hold down his pride
                       E
but he’s still sick inside
                          D
tired of fighting this battle

every day and every

Pre-Chorus:
E
night after night he stays up and stays out
D
Daddy says he’s not good enough
      E
and he looks up and asks god if
                   D
he’ll give them a chance

but he never does

and you tell them that you’re fine

Bridge:
        Bm                  D
So you find every clock in town
      E         A
and break them all
Bm                    D       E
collect the ones off bedside tables
      A                F#m
and rip them off the wall
Bm                 D     E
smash them into pieces
A              F#m
piled on the street
        D
until time stops ticking
