How To Play
INTRO
C#5/G#
VERSE 1
F#5 A5 E5 C#5/G#
Yesterday you were on my back just to get my time
F#5 A5 E5 C#5/G#
Guess it's not as precious as it seems
F#5 A5 E5 C#5/G#
Cause I found the time for hanging out and talking on the phone
F#5 A5 E5
What should I expect, now that my time is free
C#5/G#
And you're nowhere to be found
CHORUS
B5/F# C#5/G#
Next time I'll try
B5/F# G#5 A5 B5
For the first time in my life
B5/F# C#5/G#
Won't pass me by
A5 B5/F#
Procrastinate, it can wait, I put it off
F#5 A5 E5 C#5/G#
Let's start today
F#5 A5 E5 C#5/G#
Let's start today
VERSE 2
F#5 A5 E5
My room's a mess and I can't get dressed
C#5/G#
I gotta be out by eight o'clock
F#5 A5 E5 C#5/G#
Deep inside I know the answer (I know the answer)
F#5 A5 E5
Well there's no time like the present
C#5/G#
And I'd like to hang out but who doesn't
F#5 A5 E5
I've made enough mistakes for this lifetime
C#5/G#
I'm here to make amends
CHORUS
B5/F# C#5/G#
Next time I'll try
B5/F# G#5 A5 B5
For the first time in my life
B5/F# C#5/G#
Won't pass me by
A5 B5/F#
Procrastinate, it can wait, I put it off (Start!)
