A      A/G#                G    G/F#
When I called you in the morning

A        A/G#             G  G/F#
you were struggling for sense

E        E7                 A           G
You were journeying through memories so vicious

         F#m            B           D
you made all your dying wishes come true


    A  A/G  D          F     A
But I     know you're gonna try

    A/G     D       F        A
to live without love by and by

         A/G    D          F         F#m
but that's not living, that's just time

       B  F#m    B
going by, going by, my love


A   A/G   G   G/F#  x2


A       A/G#       G    G/F#
Another ship in a bottle

A      A/G#             G  G/F#
that's got no place to sail

E       E7            A            G
See the waves getting darker every hour

    F#m                   B           D
the stars have lost their power in the sky


    A  A/G  D          F     A
But I     know you're gonna try

    A/G     D       F        A
to live without love by and by

         A/G    D          F         F#m
but that's not living, that's just time

       B  F#m    B
going by, going by, my love
