Capo 2

D G A7 D

People are saying that time’ll take care of people like me

D E7 A7

And I'm living too fast, Lord you know it can’t last too much longer

D G A7 D

But little they see that their thoughts of me is my savior

D A7 D

And they really should know that the beat ought to go a little faster

Chorus:

D G A7 D

So pick up the tempo just a little, take it on home

D E7 A7

A singer ain’t singin and the drummer’s been drinkin’ too long

D G A7 D

Time’ll take care of itself so leave time alone

D A7 D

Pick up the tempo just a little, take it on home

E A B7 E

I'm wild and I'm mean, and I'm creating a scene, I'm goin' crazy

E F# B7

I'm good and I'm bad, I'm happy, I’m sad and I'm lazy

E A A7 E

I'm quiet and I’m loud, gatherin’ a crowd and I like gravy

E B7 E

'Bout half off the wall but I learned it all in the Navy

Chorus:

E A B7 E

So pick up the tempo just a little bit, take it on home

E F# B7

A singer ain’t singin and the drummer’s been drinkin’ too long

E A A7 E

Time’ll take care of itself so leave time alone

E B7 E

Pick up the tempo just a little, take it on home

E B7 E A E

Pick up the tempo just a little, take it on home
