Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Em][Am][C][Am]
[Esus4][Em][Esus4][D][Esus4][Em][Esus4]

[Verse 1]
[Esus4]Every
day there's something [Em]new that's going around
Crazy people getting all dressed
up to [Esus4]paint the town
Business men they [Em]shake their heads
and then they frown
Everybody tries so hard
to put them [D]down[Em]

[Verse 2]
[Dm]It seems to me that maybe[Em]
they got something go[F]ing
And if you [G]don't make an effort,
then you [F]got no way to [G]know[Em]

[Interlude 1]
Time is running out
[Em][Asus4][A]
[Asus4][A][Asus4][A][G][A]

[Verse 3]
[Em]Wo m[G]an, can you he[A]ar me clear?
[Asus4]I hope that you can[Em][A]
Be[G]fore [Am]you go [Asus4]to sleep a[A]t night
Take [Asus4]care of your[G] man[A]

[Verse 4]
[Dm]And if you want a love[G] that will
[Em]always [Am]be around forever
Then you finally get it, ah,
[Dm]but you ain't gonna have it [Bm]together
Time is [D]running out,

[Verse 5]
[Esus4]
[Em]runn[Esus4]ing out[Em]
Time is running [Esus4]out,
[Em]runn[Esus4]ing out[Em]
[Esus4]

[Verse 6]
[Em]Johnny drives a Thunderbird,
he's in a big rage
Always being criticized for being his age
In his nose a safety pin and
life's a razor blade
He's so sick of everything
that's been made

[Verse 7]
[Dm]It seems to me t[Em]hat maybe
he's got [F]bad frustration
And [G]all we can do is [F]try and
give the right informa[G]tion
[Em]Oh, 'cause time is running o[Asus4]ut
[G][A]

[Interlude 2]
[G][A][G][A][Em][G][A]

[Verse 8]
[G]Popula[Asus4]tion on t[G]he [A]move[Am]
[G]So don[Asus4]'t you de[G]lay[A]
Get [Am]yourself right i[A]n the [Am]groove
'N' hear [Asus4]what I say[Em][A]
[Am]It's no go[Dm]od being lazy[G]
You've [Am]got to get up on
your feet and [G]shout[Em]
[Am]'Cause it'll make you craz[G]y
When you real[Dm]ise you've
been left [Bm]out
Time is [D]running [Em]out,

[Verse 9]
[Esus4]running out[Em]
Time is [Esus4]running o[D]ut,
[Em]runn[Esus4]ing out[Em]
[Esus4]Time is running out,[Em] running out

[Verse 10]
[Em]In the future there's no room
People standing on your toes
Mother nature's on the run

[Verse 11]
Everybody's got a gun
[Em]
Soldiers walking in the street
Giving off a lot of [Esus4]heat[Em]
There just ain't enough to eat
If you're poor,

[Verse 12]
you've got no meat
[Em]Advertising in the sky
They like to stick it in your eye
So mad it will make you cry

[Verse 13]
All the things that you don't need
[Em]Trouble in the family (Said, separation
and the [sea?])
There is no more unity (Remind me what
it used to be)
Complications everywhere (It seems
to me it has to be)
[?] people stare (You know
it's true and)
Time is running out, running out

[Verse 14]
Time is running out, running out
[Em]Television in my home (People watching
every day)
Someone's talking on the phone
(I can't hear a word I say)
There's no time to be alone
(There's no time to get away)
Wonder why your mind is blown
(Nervous breakdown every day)

[Verse 15]
Take me where the air is [Em]clean
To the country, fresh and green
I just cannot stand this pace
Sorry, but there's no such place
Time is [Em]running

[Verse 16]
out,
running out

[Outro 1]
(Repeat and fade)
[Em]
