1. You look so disbelieving at my suitcase by the door,

           G                   B7                   C                D7

    my taxis's on its way here, can't take it anymore.

     C                        G                C                    G

    Lately you've forgotten what loving me's about,

             Am             Bm         C              D7         G 

    well, now you've got five minutes to figure it out.

You've got five minutes to tell me what I've needed to hear,

                  C                                                                      D7

you've got five minutes to show me that you're really sincere !

                           C

That's not much time to change my mind,

                   G              Em    - C

it'll take a miracle no doubt,

                   G                - D7                  G

you've got five minutes        to figure it out !

    you better do some talking 'cause my taxis's on its way.

C                                G                  - C                                   G

    We use to set the nights on fire,      now every day is the same,

            C                        G

    and end with "I love you."

Bm                                                C                      G

    And if you'd only kiss me the way you used to do,

Em                           A7                   D   - D7

    you could see a miracle come true.

it'll take a miracle no doubt,
