By: Johnny Q. Public
words Dan Fritz; music by Oran Thornton and Dan Fritz
(P)(c) 1995 Super Fly Camel Clutch Music/Gotee Music/BMI

From: Morley 

(Verse 1)
G                                        D            
Don't try killing time, cause time don't die
                               G
No matter how hard you try
                                    E
Years, months, weeks, days, count the minutes
                                                          F
Count the seconds, count the seconds, it flies
Ab                          A          Bb   B      C
Count the seconds, it flies, why, why, why

(Chorus 1)
A
Why, oh why do you try

(Verse 2)
G                                   D
Everyday I'm bothered by the simple things that mek me 
try to live a life that's worthy of the price that's paid to
cover me
G                 D
Very soon, I will not want ot take it
                                                                F    Gb
There comes a time when the tables must be turned
G       Ab                 A       Bb    B     C 
The table must be turned, why, why, why

(Chorus 1)

(Chorus 2)
E          D             A
Don't waste my Monday (Wednesday, Friday)
E          D             A
Don't waste my Tuesday (Thursday, Saturday)
E                      D
Don't waste the time I have
         A
For making up the time you waste

(Verse 3)
G                                         D               
Not much is being said by anybody in the world
About the things we get a hold of that could make a
Working brain go dead
                        D
If I try, it seems I'm not accepted
F
Why do you listen to the one who has nothing to say
G                   A                   Bb            B      C
The one who has nothing to say, why, why, why

(Chorus 1& 2 2x)

D                       D             A
Don't waste my Sunday, my Sunday
Gb
My Sunday, my Sunday, my Sunday
