Killing Time Chords

(ver. 1)
Courtney Patton
Capo on 3

Intro
G  C  Cm  G   D  G

Verse 1:
G
You hung your head, and you wore regret
     C                  G
in a borrowed, suit and tie.
G                                               D       D7
You looked as good to me, as the day I said goodbye.
G                                     C                 Cm
In all my life I swore that I'd never see the day you'd cry.
G                          
But you walked away, in tears and chains,
       D           G      G7
Locked up, killing time.

Chorus:
        C       
Killing time for playing dirty,
        G
Killing time for telling lies.
G                                                         D     D7  
You don't have to admit you hurt me, I can see it in your eyes.
G                                         C                Cm
You were good at spinnin' that money, not good at spinnin' lies.
       G       
So you count your days, paying for your ways, 
       D           G    
Locked up, killing time.

Verse 2:
G
What a sad state of mind, when you toe the line
C               G 
just by looking away.
G                                                          D      D7
It's sadder still when you find the will to cross it every day.
G                                            C                       Cm
What a grand mistake when you plan to make a dollar from a dishonest dime.
G
When you deceive, there's no reprieve,
       D           G      G7
Locked up, killing time.

Chorus:
        C       
Killing time for playing dirty,
        G
Killing time for telling lies.
G                                                         D     D7  
You don't have to admit you hurt me, I can see it in your eyes.
G                                         C                Cm
You were good at spinnin' that money, not good at spinnin' lies.
       G       
So you count your days, paying for your ways, 
       D           G    
Locked up, killing time.

         G
Yes, you count your days, paying for your ways, 
       D           G    Cm   G
Locked up, killing time.
