The Importance Of Being Idle

Intro: Am Em (x4) Am Am Fmaj7 i sold my soul for the second time C B7 E cos the land, it don't pay me Am Fmaj7 i begged my landlord for some more time C B7 E he said "son, the bills are waiting" Am Fmaj7 my best friend called me the other night C B7 E he said "man, are you crazy?" Am Fmaj7 my girlfriend told me to get a life C B7 E she said "boy, are you lazy" Dm Am (you can play barre chords here) but i don't mind Dm Am as long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine Dm Am i'll be fine Fmaj7 if you give me a minute, a man's got a limit G E i can't get a life if my heart's not in it... (instrumental) Am Fmaj7 C B7 E Dm Am i don't mind Dm Am as long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine Dm Am i'll be fine Fmaj7 if you give me a minute, a man's got a limit G E i can't get a life if my heart's not in it... (repeat intro) Fmaj7 Am Am Fmaj7 i lost my faith in the summertime C B7 E cos it don't stop raining Am Fmaj7 the sky all day is as black as night C B7 E but i'm not complaining Am Fmaj7 i begged my doctor for one more line C B7 E he said "son... words fail me" Am Fmaj7 it ain't no place to be killing time C B7 E i guess i'm just lazy Dm Am i don't mind Dm Am as long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine Dm Am i'll be fine Fmaj7 if you give me a minute, a man's got a limit G E i can't get a life if my heart's not in it... (repeat intro) Am Fmaj7 (ends with Am )
