TIME AFTER TIME – CINDY LAUPER

F G Em Fmaj9 (repeat)

[Verse 1]

Dm C Dm C Dm C Dm C
Ly - ing in bed I hear the clock tick and think of you.
Caught up in cir - cles confu - sion is nothing new.
F G Em F G Em
Flashbacks, warm nights. Almost left behind
F G Em F F Fmaj9
Suitcase of memories, time after
Dm C Dm C Dm C Dm C
Some - times you picture me, I'm walk ing too far ahead.
You're calling to me I can't hear what you've said.
F G Em F G Em
Then you say go slow, I fall behind.
F G Em F
The second hand undwinds.

[Chorus]

G Am7 F Fmaj9 C
If you're lost you can look and you will find me. Time after time.
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting. Time after time.
If you're lost you can look and you will find me. Time after time.
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting. Time after time.

[Verse 2]

Dm C Dm C Dm C Dm C
Af - ter my picture fades and dark-ness has turned to grey.
Watching through win - dows, you're wondering if I'm o - k.

F G Em F G Em F G Em F
Secrets stolen from deep inside. The drum beats out of time.

[Chorus]

You said go slow, I fall behind. The second hand unwinds.

[Chorus]

F Fmaj9 C
Time after time.
Time after time.
Time after time.
