Verse

Am G6 Cmaj D5

There are so many hours in the day

Am G6 Cmaj D5

I know I've got work to do but hey

Am G6 Cmaj D5 D5

My will to move, or even use my brain

Am G6 Cmaj D5

Is weathered by the eternal english rain

Am G6 Cmaj D5

And when the talk show ends, I scream

Am G6 Cmaj D5

Right at the screen for more pregnant teens

Am G6 Cmaj D5 D5

I can't fall asleep it's almost 3

Am G6 Cmaj D5

So I water the flowers out on the street

Chorus

D5 Bb F G6

And I spent 5 hours on the net last night

D5 Bb F G6

Avoiding the monsters under my bed with square eyes

Am G6 Cmaj D5

Verse 2 is shorter than Verse 1 but it has the same chords, so listen to the song for timing.
