It's very simple ska/reggae-style song from an album "Shabooh shoobah" (1982). I advice 
to play it with a barre chords.
It's really funny to play! :)
Intro:
Could Bmbe clear black and white
Make a decision
   BmGot a need inside and I don't know why
It's a strong feeling that grows and grows
Chorus:
GOne day - my life is Aout the door
GNext day - you show me Awhat it's for
GOne day - I think I kAnow myself
GNext day - you leave me Aon the shelf
BmNew moment goes like this
Never forbidden
There's nothing to stop
The thief of time stealing
The hours that keep you away
   BmIt rushes through my veins
Straight to my head
My mind is a planet
For you to roam
BmThis is only just the start
It's the beginning
BmThere's nothing to stop
The thief of time
Stealing the hours
That keep you away
Chorus:
GOne day - my life is Aout the door
GNext day - you show me Awhat it's for
GOne day - I think I kAnow myself
GNext day - you leave me Aon the shelf
BmIn this house I call home
Living together
BmGot a need inside
And I don't know why
It's a strong
Feeling and it grows and grows
Chorus:
GOne day - my life is Aout the door
GNext day - you show me Awhat it's for
GOne day - I think I kAnow myself
GNext day - you leave me Aon the shelf
BmThis is only just the start
It's the beginning
BmNew moment goes like this
Never forbidden
BmCould be clear black and white
Make a decision
