When Seconds Count

Key: G

Introduction: G    Bb    Dm    Dm    C    Bb    C    D    

G  
Can't remember just how it ended
          Em  
I'm hazy as to how it began
G  
Crazy how our lives got so tangled
                          Em  
Now we're simply silent partners again
D                                              Em  
Secretly walking a tightrope
             D/F#                                                         G  
Come fall into the arms of the past
                                C                                    G  
'Cause it's still the same me
     D                              Em  
Still the same you
          C                            G                                    D  
Who swore those promises would still ring true
                                     G  
So, when your heart cries out
                                                  Bb  
In the middle of a sleepless night
                                                             Dm            C  Bb  
And you're suddenly so lonely
When seconds count
C  
Count on me
D  
Count on me
G  
Special moments taken for granted
     Em  
A tenderness that found no reward
G  
Funny how you'd speak of forever
                     Em  
Only to wind up restless and bored
          D                                                              Em  
Can sweethearts, so suddenly strangers
     D/F#                                                 G  
Recapture in a moment of fire
                             C                                    G  
Well, it's still the same me
     D                              Em  
Still the same you
          C                    G                                    D  
The same two children, deep down it's true
                                     G  
So, when your heart cries out
                                                  Bb  
In the middle of a sleepless night
                                                                          Dm            C  Bb  
And you're lost and feeling lonely
When seconds count
C  
Count on me
D  
Count on me
                          G  
When your dream dies hard
                                                     Bb  
And you're stranded out on the boulevard
                                                  Dm                    C  Bb  
I'll be there in a heartbeat
When seconds count
C  
Count on me
D                              Dm  
Count on me
                          C  
I'm going back in time
                          Bb  
To how it used to be
                             C  
Now it's a race with time
                  G  
'Til I change your mind
                          G  
When your heart cries out
                                                  Bb  
In the middle of a sleepless night
                                                                          Dm            C  Bb  
And you're lost and feeling lonely
When seconds count
C  
Count on me
D  
Count on me
                          G  
When your dream dies hard
                                                     Bb  
And you're stranded out on the boulevard
                                                  Dm                    C  Bb  
I'll be there in a heartbeat
When seconds count
C  
Count on me
D                                                      G  
You can always count on me
        G         Bb         Dm      C  Bb      C      D
