Intro: |G |
|G | | |
Don't tell me the reason that you're callin'
|C | |G |
Is to see if I'm all right since you been gone,
|D | |G |
Cause I know you and I know why we're talkin';
|C | |D |
You're wantin me to say I'm barely hangin' on.
|C |D |C |D
Well, maybe that was true, for a night or two,
|C |D |G |
But now, I've got better things to do. ...I could:
|C | | | |G
...Wash my car in the rain, change my new guitar strings;
|G | | |C
Mow the yard just the same, as I did yesterday.
|C |G | |D |
I don't need to waste my time, crying over you;
|C |D |G | | |
...I've got better things to do.
|G | | |
Maybe when I don't have so much goin'
|C | |G |
Or quite so many irons in the fire,
|C | |G |
I'll take the time to miss you like you're hoping,
|C | |D |
But now I can't put forth the effort it requires.
|C |D |C |D
I'd love to talk to you, but then I'd miss Donahue.
|C |D |G |
That's right, I've got better things to do. ...I could:
|C | | | |G
...Wash my car in the rain, change my new guitar strings;
|G | | |C
Mow the yard just the same, as I did yesterday.
|C |G | |D |
I don't need to waste my time, crying over you;
|C |D
...I've got better things to...
|C |C | | |G
do. Check the air in my tires, straighten my stereo wires,
|G | | |C
Count the stars in the sky or just get on with my life
|C |G | |D |
I don't need to waste my time, crying over you;
|C |D |G
...I've got better things to do.
|C |D |G | | |
...I've got better things to do.
