Clocks (Live in Madrid, 2008) Lyrics

[Intro: Chris Martin]
Todos bien?

[Verse 1: Chris Martin]
Lights go out, and I can't be saved
Tides that tried to swim against
Brought me down upon my knees (Oh, oh)
Oh, I beg, I beg and plead, singin'
Come out of things unsaid
Shoot an apple off my head
When a trouble that can't be named
Tigers waitin' to be tamed, singin'

[Chorus: Chris Martin]
You are
You are

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2: Chris Martin, Will Champion & Both]
C-C-Confusion never stops
Closin' walls and tickin' clocks, gonna
Come back and take it home
I couldn't stop that, you now know, so I
Come out upon my seas
Cursed missed opportunities
Am I a part of the cure
Or am I part of the disease?
Singin'
[Chorus: Chris Martin]
You are
You are

[Bridge: Chris Martin]
Oh, but nothin' else compares
Oh, but nothin' elsе compares
Oh, but nothin' else comparеs

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro: Chris Martin]
Singin' home, home
Where I wanted to go
Home, home
Where I wanted to go
Home, home
Where I wanted to go
Home, home
Where I wanted to go

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
