The Great Procrastinator

G                            C
Bound for somewhere down the road
             G                        D
With a heavy load on this ever-racing mind
G                      C
Too much cooking on my stove
               G      D             G
I've stewed myself a traffic jam inside

G                       C
There's a junction up ahead
                            G                                D
And I'm trying to read the signs, but this traffic's made me blind
    G                    C
And I'm a scientist with far too many metaphors
    D              G                   D
And far too little data to conclude in time


[Chorus]

    G                    C
And you, you are the indecision maker
G                         C
You, you are the path unknown
    C    D                G     C
And I, I am the great procrastinator
Am        D      G
Pondering my way home

[Verse]

G                   C
I've been busy as a beaver
            G                          D
And I'll be damned if I don't ease the flow
G                      C
My big fish'll pass me by
                   G       D         G
If I don't make my mind up damn pronto

     G                     C
So I took a hike on Offa's dyke
                        G                        D
With a song stuck in my head and a blister on my toe
  G                      C
I left my baggage on the bed
           G               D                 G
Brought my cobwebs, and to England they must blow


[Chorus]

    G                        C
And you, you are the mystery tour enlister
G                          C
You, you are the sights untold
    C    D                 G    C
And I, I am the great procrastinator
Am       D      G
Stalling in the road



[Interlude] (and key change)

    C                        F
And you, you are the problem instigator
C                        F
You, you are the cryptic code
    F    G                C     F
And I, I am the great procrastinator
Dm       G      C
Puzzling on my own

   F     G                C    F
Oh I, I am the great procrastinator
F            G      C
Squandering chances as I roam
  G                 C    F
I am the great procrastinator
Dm        G       C
Pondering my way home
