E                    C#m
I've been waiting on time
     B                 E
But time won't be my friend
                        C#m
'Cause time ain’t got a heart
     B                   E
And time won't beat for nothin'
                 C#m         B               E
And I've got the time but I haven't got the time
             C#m      B
To listen to anything else but

Chorus:
     E
I'm something
    C#m
I'm nothing
    C                          B
And I just worry about getting money
       E        C#m
'Cause I'm busy earning
     C                    B
And time is always on my side

E                   C#m
What do I want from time?
      B                 E
Well not that much you see
                   C#m
'Cause I don't own time
     B                 E
But time does not own me
                  C#m
And time ain't my friend
     B              E
And time is not my fear
                    C#m       B          E
'Cause time is only days and months and years

Chorus:
   C#m
Of regret cause
   C                       B
I didn't make the most of time
   E            C#m
I was too busy earning
  C                         B
I only worry about getting money
     E         C#m
Yeah I want, I want that
     C                          B
Yeah I just wanna get on that check
       E      C#m
‘Cause I am a leader
    C                B
Yet I am your worst enemy
