[Bb]
Don't tell me the reason that you're calling
Is [Eb] to see if I'm alright [Bb] since you've been gone
Cause [F] I know you and I know [Bb] why we're talking
[Eb] You want me to say I'm barely [F] hanging on
Well [Eb] maybe that was [Bb] true
[Eb] For a night or [F] two
[Ab] But now [Eb] I've got better things to [Bb] do
[Bbm]
[Eb] I could wash my car in the rain
Change my new [Bb] guitar strings
Mow the yard just the same
As I did [Eb] yesterday
I don't need to [Bb] waste my time
Crying [F] over you
[Ab] [Eb] I've got better [Bb] things to do
[Bbm]
[Bb] Maybe when I don't have so much going
Or [Eb] quite so many irons [Bb] in the fire
I'll [F] take the time to miss you [Bb] like you're hoping
But [Eb] now I can't put forth the effort [F] it requires
[Eb] Well I'd love to [Bb] talk with you
[Eb] But then I'd [F] miss Donahue
[Ab] That's right, [Eb] I've got better [Bb] things to do
[Eb] I could wash my car in the rain
Change my new [Bb] guitar strings
Mow the yard just the same
As I [Bbm] did [Eb] yesterday
I don't need to [Bb] waste my time
Crying [F] over you
[Ab] I've [Eb] got better things to do
Check the air in my tires
Straighten [F] my [Bb] stereo wires
Count the stars in the sky
Or just get [Bbm] on [Eb] with my life
I don't need to [Bb] waste my time
Crying [F] over you
[Ab] I've [Eb] got better [Bb] things to do
[Ab] I've [Eb] got better [Bb] things to do
[F] [Bb]
