AND BUSTLE.
WHY DON'T I JUST STOP,
[F]LOOK AT THE PRETTY [D]ROSES,
[G]SMELL THEM FOR ONE MOMENT,
TAKE THE TIME TO SEE,
TAKE THE TIME TO SMELL,
[F]HAVE A GOOD TIME IN [B]LIFE.
DON'T [Fm]LET EV''RYTHING PASS YOU B[B]Y,

[Em]AND I'VE BEEN HERE LONGE[A]R
THAN [G]MOST OF YOU."

[Verse 7]
SO [Bb]STOP [F]AND TAKE THE[Bb] TIME
TO BUY THIS ALBUM,

THEM ALL DAY LONG.
STOP EV'RYTHING YOU'RE DOING,
[Eb]RUN TO YOUR LOCAL RE
[Ab]CORD SHOP AND SAY,
"GIVE ME THAT RECORD
[G]CALLED [G]'STOP'"
I'M GOING CRAZY WITH THIS
RECORD BUSINESS,
I WANNA STOP IT,
YOU WANT ME TO STOP IT,
EV'RYBODY WANTS IT TO STOP.
