[Am] It's six o'clock, good morning [Em] sounds are everywhere
The [Am] warmth of spring a gentle [Em] breeze blows through my hair
I hurry [F]
through my life
Never stopping [Em] to see How [F] beautiful
It was meant [G] to be
I'm just [Am] a prisoner [G] in a [F] king's disguise
[G]
[C] [Am] Broken [G] dreams as we [F] shuffle by
[G] It's [A] [Am] six o'clock, it's quitting time [Em] I'm done for the day
[Am] Out on the streets I [Em] overheard a lady
say
We now [F] have everything
Old soul [Em] people say
But now [F] this emptiness haunts me [G] every day
We seek [A] the lion's [Am] share
