[Intro]
Am / G / G / Am
 
 
Am                 G
Time spent sitting all alone
G                  Am G  Am
Time spent looking at my phone
Am                 G
Time spent sitting all alone
G                  Am G  Am
Time spent looking at my phone
 
 
Am                G
I try to pull the curtains back
G             Am    G  Am
Turn you off, can't detach
     Am             G
When all I want and all I know
   G                  Am G  Am
Is time spent looking at my phone
 
 
Am               G
Find me when the lights go down
G              Am  G   Am
Signing in and signing out
Am              G
Gods descend to take me home
    G               Am G  Am
And find me staring at my phone
 
 
Am                      G
I'm wondering where the hours went
G             Am   G  Am
As I'm losing consciousness
   Am             G
My sullen face is all aglow
G                  Am G  Am
Time spent looking at my phone
 
C
Last thing that you need
     Esus4     E
Is a new shiny feature
        Am
All the memories you've shared
  F            G
Devoured by perverted creatures
C
Nothing can compete
         Esus4          E
With the first time you saw her
        Am
Passing strangers on the street
         F            G
Spending every moment looking at their phones
 
 
Am                 G
Time spent sitting all alone
G                  Am G  Am
Time spent looking at my phone
Am                 G
Time spent sitting all alone
G                  Am G  Am
Time spent looking at my phone
 
 
Am                    G
I call you, you don't call me back
G            Am    G  Am
Almost had a heart attack
Am                   G
I'm listening to the window moan
G                  Am G  Am
Time spent looking at my phone
 
 
C
Clouds are getting full
       Esus4         E
So you close all the windows
        Am
I would never let you die
     F              G
Even if our love is ornamental
C
You know what you need
     Esus4     E
Is a way to remember
        Am
You can never find the time
             F                 G
If you spend every day looking at your phone
 
 
Am / G / G / Am (x4)
 
 
C
You should come with me
       Esus4             E
We can lose ourselves in nothing
     Am
Copy faces from the feed
         F                G
And then try to turn them into something
C                     Esus4             E
Even if you choose to believe that it's ending
            Am
You'll come back to me again
        F            G
You can go ahead and stop pretending
 
 
[Outro]
C / C / Esus4 / E / Am / Am / F / G (x4)
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo....

Hey this is mostly accurate, but in the second part of the verses they switch the first G's and Am's for a F to Em.
