[D]
Some people are [G] saying that time will take care [D] of people like me
That I'm living too [E] fast and they say that I can't [A] last much longer
But [D] little they see [G] that their thoughts of me is [D] my savior
And they really should know [A] that the beat ought to go [D] a little faster
So pick up the tempo [G] just a little [A] and [D] take it on home
The singer ain't [E] singing and the drummer's been [A] dragging too long
[D] Time will take [G] care of itself so [A] just leave [D] time alone
Pick up the [G] tempo just a little [A] and [D] take it on home
[E] Well I'm wild and I'm [A] mean and I'm creating a [E] scene and going crazy
Well I'm good and I'm [F#] bad and I'm happy and I'm [B] sad and I'm lazy
[E] I'm [B] [E] quiet and I'm [A] loud and I'm gathering a [E] crowd and I like gravy
About half off the wall [B]
I learned it [E] all in the navy
So pick up the tempo [A] just a little [G] and take [E] it on home
The singer ain't [F#] singing and the drummer's been dragging [B] too long
