[Verse 1]
      G                           Bm
There once was a clock that would go tick-tock

      C                 G
Every 24 hours it would ring

        C                    G
But the clock fell dead in a water hogshead

      D
Now unhap'ly does it sing
[Chorus]
     G                      Bm
Oh I wish I were back in my cosy spot

C                     G
Keeping the time to a tee

       C         Cadd9       B
By the sink, dishwasher, and coffee pot

    Am            Dm7     Am
Now look what's become of me

    Am            Dm7     Am
Now look what's become of me
[Instrumental] C G Dsus2 D D4 G [Verse 2]
       G                     Bm
So the clock does moan and regret the fate

       C                    G
Of its waterlogged cogs and wheels

      C                        G           Bm
And replaced in its stead is a new clock - but

        D
One who never can know how it feels
[Verse 3]
          G                      Bm
And if it knew how it felt to be struck into naught

      C                     G
To be drowned in the fallen rain

C                  G
How much would the new clock learn

         D
How much wisdom it would gain
[Chorus]
     G                      Bm
Oh I wish I were back in my cosy spot

C                     G
Keeping the time to a tee

       C         Cadd9       B
By the sink, dishwasher, and coffee pot

    Am            Dm7     Am
Now look what's become of me
[Chorus]
     G                      Bm
Oh I wish I were back in my cosy spot

C           D         G
Keeping the time to a tee

       C         Cadd9       B
By the sink, dishwasher, and coffee pot

    Am            Dm7     Am
Now look what's become of me

       Am            Dm7     C
Oh now look what's become of me
[Outro] G Dsus2 D D4 G
