Better Things To Do

 G


[Verse 1]
 G
Don't tell me the reason that you're
 callin'
       C                           
Is to see if I'm all right since 
        G
you been gone,
       D                       
Cause I know you and I know why 
        G
we're talkin';
               C                   
You're wantin me to say I'm barely 
         D
hangin' on.
       C              D        C 
Well, maybe that was true,    for
             D
 a night or two,
     F             C               
But now, I've got better things to 
G
do.     ...I could:


[Chorus]
 C                                 
...Wash my car in the rain, change 
                G
my new guitar strings;
  G                                
Mow the yard just the same, as I 
    C
did yesterday.

       C                   G 
I don't need to waste my time, 
                D
crying over you;
F                   C             
      ...I've got better things to 
 G
do.


[Verse 2]
G
Maybe when I don't have so much 
goin'
    C                           G
Or quite so many irons in the fire,
      D                            
I'll take the time to miss you like
        G
 you're hoping,
           C                       
But now I can't put forth the 
        D
effort it requires.
     C               D            
I'd love to talk to you,    but 
    C            D
then I'd miss Donahue.
        F               C         
That's right, I've got better 
       G
things to do.      ...I could:


[Chorus]
    C                              
...Wash my car in the rain, change 
                   G
my new guitar strings;
        G                          
Mow the yard just the same, as I 
        C
did yesterday.
       C                  G  
I don't need to waste my time, 
               D
crying over you;
F            C
...I've got better things to...

 C                 C          
do.  Check the air in my tires, 
                           G
straighten my stereo wires,
  G                                
Count the stars in the sky or just 
                 C
get on with my life
  C                       G  
I don't need to waste my time, 
               D
crying over you;
F            C               G
...I've got better things to do.
F            C                G
...I've got better things to do.
