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