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
        C           G             D
And all eyes on the pavement, I’m not gonna touch ya
D7                   C
Don’t worry so much about it
G        C       G       C      G       D     D7
I’m just waiting for the day to become night


[Verse 3]
Em               D          G
   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]
     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
Don’t worry so much about it
G        C       G       C      G       D
I’m just waiting for the day to become night


[Outro]
         C        G        C         G
And I’ll shine my shoes and mow those lawns
      C        G      D
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
