Tripod: Goodbye Little Alarm Clock
Mornin' people! This is correct, but for the effect of really staccato notes (without
ringing untouched strings) bar on the chords instead of playing open string G for
example.

Goodbye little alarm clock
You've given me great time
But lately times been slipping away from
You
Why you've given up on
Me... I don't know
Alarm clock don't be sour
You're losing all your power
It's your eleventh hour time to
Go
I got you when I was ten
Things were simpler then
You woke me up in time for the early bird
Show
And later on that day
You woke me up OK
In time for Simon *Townsend's
"Wonder world"
I slept a lot as a kid
Oh alarm clock all the things we did
But you didn't do much, you just sat there making
Noise and now that's what I do for a living.
Goodbye little alarm clock
You've given me great time
But lately time's been slipping away from
You
Why you've given up on
Me... I don't know
Alarm clock don't be sour
You're losing all your power
It's your eleventh hour time to
Go
And when my teenage years unfurled
When I brought home a girl
You sat and watched and never judged me
Once
But no matter who it was
They came second because
Alarm clock it's always your face that I
Saw
I was a pretty weird kid
They said I loved you and I did
But they can keep their skateboard's coz you go backwards and forwards
Not unlike words like Glenelg or boob...
**p.m:
"Goodbye alarm clock, goodbye. How could I ever replace you? Maybe I should get one of
those... atomic clocks... that would suit me just well."**
Why you've given up on
Me... I don't know
Alarm clock don't be sour
You're losing all your power
It's your eleventh hour time to
Go
"Goodbye alarm clock, goodbye..."
*Townsends = Im not sure of the word they use here - some guy's last name... it sounds
like a whole range of words, use what ever you want here ;)
** = This bit is just said, and in some very weird rhythm, Scod just plays over the top
of Gatesy's talking.
