[Intro]
Em D G
Em D G C
[Verse 1]
Em D G
In the morning I’m slow
Em D G C
I drag a chair over to the window
Em D G
And I watch what’s going on
Em D G C
The garbage truck tiptoes along the road
Em D G
Light a candle for the sufferin’
Em D G C
Send my best wishes with the wind
Em D G
All our candles, hopes, and prayers
Em D G C
Though well-meanin’ they don’t mean a thing
Em D G
Unless we see some change
Em D G
I might change my sheets today
[Chorus 1]
C G D G
Well time is money and money is no man’s friend
C G D
And all eyes on the pavement, I’m not gonna touch ya
D7 C Am
Don’t worry so much about it
[Verse 2]
Em D G
The day begins to shine
Em D G C
The parent teaches the child how to ride
Em D G
The bike wobbles side to side
Em D G C
Two dogs entangle, everybody smiles
Em D G
The pair across the street
Em D G C
One's up the ladder and one’s on their knees
Em D G
Painting the faded brick
Em D G
What’s the point; it looks fine from up here
[Chorus 2]
C G D G
Well time is money and money is no man’s friend

And all eyes on the pavement, I’m not gonna touch ya

I’m just waiting for the day to become night

Next door the kids run amok
Em D G C
The mother screams, “Don’t you ever shut up?”
Em D G
And there’s one thing I know
Em D G C
The sun will rise today and tomorrow
Em D G
We got a long long way to go
[Chorus 3]

Well time is money and money is no man’s friend

And I’ll shine my shoes and mow those lawns

Let's get back to normal
C G C G
Lay it all on the table, ya seem so stable
C G D
But you’re just hangin’ on
C G C G
Let go that expectation, change the station,
C G D D7
And find out what you want
Em D G
