Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

Money to blow, dice to throw in a gamblers paradise

Livin?s the same, its a crooked game, till the day we?re wise

A ride on the train, love on the brain, its a patience exercise

Riding your luck, before your stuck, we?re all due a slice

Takin? the grief, turnin? the leaf, its the average mans way

Payin? his fees, down on his knees, but theres never time to pray

Chorus

But we never take time to slow things down

we?re all in such a rush these days

Seems we wanna a city before we build a town

Won?t be long before its on the ground

Should be slowing down

(Repeat 3 times)

Verse 2

Time on your own, bored to the bone, its not the place for one

Desire and lust, a partners a must, but all the best have gone

Take to the road, lighten the load, with your memories driftin? by

Stop for a break, it?s for your own sake, but you've never time to cry

Chorus

Bridge Part 1 (as verse)

Gear number five, makes you feel alive, but when you gonna realise

That gear number two maybe best for you, in someone else?s eyes

Bridge Part 2 (Played as verse but slowed down to 2 bars per one

chord in the verse)

Because it's all speed and greed theres no time to wait

Heading full on to an unknown fate

Tying knots too soon, bride or groom, should wait until their older.

Too many the same, such a shame, their leaning without a shoulder.

Chorus then repeated twice in full, finishes quietly with:

Na na nah, na na nah nah, na na nah nah nah nah nah
