Not A Second To Waste


Well I found that the highest rated version of this song used a capo, and I've been this song fine for quite a long time, no capo, simple chords, so I thought I'd throw my out there. :]. Very simple song, very fun to play. The verse, and the interlude are palm muted the entire time, while the chorus is strumming. The strumming pattern is easy to figure out, it's the same all the way through. D# Standard [D#,G#,C#,F#,A#,D#] Everything is tuned down one half step. And the chords that I write, are what they would be in standard tuning, for simplicity. E - 0,2,2,1,0,0 A - x,0,2,2,2,0 B - x,2,4,4,4,2 EM7 - 0,2,1,1,0,0 E I'm checking your pulse, I'm giving you air A But your body disagrees E And no it don't care at all Em7 I'm wasting my time E Now your eyes roll awake, you're looking at me A You say "Darling what happened, did I fall asleep B And you carry me home? E Cause I know I wasn't here" E I'm closing your blinds, I'm shutting your eyes A E And now I'm afraid I have to go A Whoa E I'd sing you a song but I'm feeling quite off A E In my heart,It's occupied A And now's not the time Interlude: [E,A,E,Em7] (palm muted) E Let's try this again and this time don't laugh A Cause I'm working on my sentences E I'm working on my play on words Em7 I'll get it this time E If I am a clock then you are the time A I'm patiently waiting and your out of line B And I'll be the question E If you'll be the answer E I'm closing your blinds, I'm shutting your eyes A E And now I'm afraid I have to go A Whoa E I'd sing you a song but I'm feeling quite off A E In my heart,It's occupied A And now's not the time A If I am a clock then you are the time E I'm patiently waiting and you're out of line A I'm counting the times you've lied to my face E My hands were full not a second to waste A If I am a clock then you are the time E I'm patiently waiting and you're out of line A I'm counting the times you've lied to my face E My hands were full not a second to waste E I'm closing your blinds, I'm shutting your eyes A E And now I'm afraid I have to go A Whoa E I'd sing you a song but I'm feeling quite off A E In my heart,It's occupied A And now's not the time E (Strum) The time
