 I hear the clock, it's six a.m.

 Got my eggs, and my pancakes too
C           D
 Got the maple syrup, everything but you
Cadd9             G6/B
 I break the yolks, and make a smiley face
C           Em
 I kinda like it in my brand new place
      Cadd9                  G6/B
I Wipe the spots off of the mirror, don't leave the keys in the door

I called my mama, she was out for a walk
C               Em
Consoled a cup of coffee, but it didn't wanna talk
   Cadd9           G6/B
So I Picked up a paper, it was more bad news
   C            D
More hearts being broken, or people being used
Cadd9         G6/B
Put on my coat in the pouring rain
C           Em
 Saw a movie, it just wasn't the same
Cadd9     G6/B
 It was happy, I was sad
C          D
 It made me miss you oh so bad, 'cause..
