Year: 1974 - Album: Turn It on Again: Tour Edition

Written by Tony Banks/Phil Collins/Peter Gabriel/Steve Hackett/Mike Rutherford

	  		Ab  Ab/G         Fm7  
I'm counting out time,  
        Ab/Eb               C#7+ 
Got the whole thing down by numbers.  
          Ab/C             Bb  
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      Bb  
for this testing, digesting every  
Eb7              Ab  
word the experts say.  
 
          F#      C#/F  Ab/Eb  
Erogenous zones I love  you.  
  B                       F#/Bb         Ab7 
Without you, what would a poor boy do?  
 
Ab7  
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       Bb7         C#  
I studied every line, every page in the book,  
D                 D/C                  Bb  
Now, I've got the real thing here, I'm gonna take a look, take a look.  
 
Ab  Ab/G         Fm7  
I'm counting out time,  
Ab/Eb                  C#7+ 
hoping it goes like I planned it,  
             Ab/C              
'cos I understand it.  
           Bb                  Eb7            Ab  
Look! I've found the hotspots, Figures one to nine.  
      Ab/G         Fm7  
still counting out time,  
       Ab/Eb         C#7+ 
got my finger on the button,  
           Ab/C           Bb  
"Don't say nothin' - just lie there still  
         Eb7                    Ab  
And I'll get you turned on just fine."  
 
          F#      C#/F Ab/Eb  
Erogenous zones I love you.  
  B                       F#/Bb          Ab7 
Without you, what would a poor boy do?  
 
Ab7 
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!  
 
        Ab7/Eb     Bb7       C#  
Getting crucial responses, dilation of the pupils.  
 D         D/C       Bb  
"Honey get hip! It's time to unzip,  
to unzip, zip, zip-a-zip-a-zip. Whipee!"  
 
( Ab  Ab/G  Fm7  Ab/Eb  C#7+  Ab/C  Bb  Eb7  Ab ) 2x 
 
Ab  Ab/G         Fm7  
I'm counting out time,  
  Ab/Eb          C#7+ 
reaction none to happy,  
              Ab/C      
Please don't slap me,  
      Bb                        Eb7                   Ab  
I'm a red blooded male  and the book said I could not fail.  
    Ab/G         Fm7  
I'm counting out time,  
       Ab/Eb         C#7+ 
I got unexpected distress  
        Ab/C  
from my mistress,  
            Bb                  Eb7              Ab  
I'll get my money back from the bookstore right away.  
 
           F#      C#/F     Ab/Eb  
Erongenous zones I question you 
  B                       F#/Bb    Ab  
Without you, what would a poor boy do?  
  B                       F#/Bb    Ab  
Without you, what would a poor boy do? 
  B                  F#/Bb               Ab    C#m  
Without you, mankind handkinds thru' the blues.
