Counting Out Time

Genesis

   Ab  Ab/G         Fm7
1. I'm counting out time,
   Ab/Eb               C#7+
   Got the whole thing down by numbers.
   Ab/C             B
   All those numbers! Give me guidance!
   Eb7              Ab
   O Lord I need that now.
   Ab/G               Fm7
   The day of judgement's come,
   Ab/Eb              C#7+
   And you can bet that I've been resting,
   Ab/C      B
   for this testing, digesting every
   Eb7              Ab
   word the experts say.

R: Erogenous zones I love you.
   B                       F#/B         Ab7
   Without you, what would a poor boy do?

    Ab7
*1: Found a girl I wanted to date,
    Thought I'd better get it straight.
    Went to buy a book before it's too late.
    Don't leave nothing to fate.
   
    Ab7/Eb       B7         C#
    I studied every line, every page in the book,
    D                 D/C                  B
    Now, I've got the real thing here, I'm gonna take a look, take a look.

2. I'm counting out time,
   hoping it goes like I planned it,
   'cos I understand it. Look!
   I've found the hotspots, Figures one to nine.
   still counting out time,
   got my finger on the button,
   "Don't say nothin' - just lie there still
   And I'll get you turned on just fine."

R: Erogenous zones I love you...

*2: Touch and go with 1-6.
    Bit of trouble in zone No. 7.
    Gotta remember all of my tricks.
    There's heaven ahead in No. 11!
   
    Getting crucial responses, dilation of the pupils.
    "Honey get hip! It's time to unzip, to unzip, zip, zip-a-zip-a-zip. 
    Whipee!"

3. I'm counting out time,
   reaction none to happy,
   Please don't slap me, I'm a red blooded male
   and the book said I could not fail.
   I'm counting out time,
   I got unexpected distress
   from my mistress, I'll get my money
   back from the bookstore right away.

R: Erongenous zones...
   
   B                       F#/B    Ab
   Without you, what would a poor boy do?
   B                  F#/B               Ab    C#m
   Without you, mankind handkinds thru' the blues.
