D             A         G

D     A          G 
its a not such a gentle reminder 
D         A                G 
that i'm where i should'nt be 
 

D           A           G

D             A         G

D       A   G

D        A      G

and the second one is impossible to find 
D                   A              G  
but the clock keeps runnin and the odds keep gettin higher 
D                      A          G

D           A             G
