The Allman Brothers Band — Ain't Wasting Time No More
BbC#maj7C#maj7
Last Sunday morning, the sunshine felt like rain.
BbC#maj7BbC#maj7
Week before, they all seemed the same.
BbC#maj7C#maj7
With the help of God and true friends, I come to realize
BbC#maj7BbC#maj7
I still had two strong legs, and even wings to fly.
EbGm7C7
And oh I, ain't wastin time no more
FBb
'Cause time goes by like hurricanes, and faster things.
BbC#maj7BbC#maj7
Lord, lord Miss Sally, why all your cryin'?
BbC#maj7BbC#maj7
Been around here three long days, you're lookin' like you're dyin'.
BbC#maj7BbC#maj7
Just step yourself outside, and look up at the stars above
BbC#maj7BbC#maj7
Go on downtown baby, find somebody to love.
EbGm7C7
Meanwhile I ain't wastin' time no more
FBb
'Cause time goes by like pouring rain, and much faster things.
EbBb7
You don't need no gypsy to tell you why
EbBb7
You can't let one precious day slip by.
EbEb7Bb
But look inside yourself, and if you don't see what you want,
F
Maybe sometimes then you don't,
EbBb
But leave your mind alone and just get high.
Guitar lead over one full verse
BbC#maj7BbC#maj7
Well by and by, way after many years have gone,
BbC#maj7BbC#maj7
And all the war freaks die off, leavin' us alone.
BbC#maj7BbC#maj7
We'll raise our children in the peaceful way we can,
BbC#maj7BbC#maj7
It's up to you and me brother to try and try again.
EbGm7C7
Well, hear us now, we ain't wastin' time no more
FBb
'Cause time goes by like hurricanes, runnin' after subway trains
Don't forget the pouring rain.
