A
[Verse 1]
Bm E F#m
The lovers of the world are slaving away
D A/C# E
But I do nothing much but breathe
Bm E F#m
When good men do nothing it's true what they say
D A/C# E
The devil is rolling up his sleeve
[Chorus]
D A E D A/C# E/B
Is God so busy in his time that I'm doing nothing too
Bm A/C# D Bm A/C# E
So baby here I am, waiting for you
Bm A/C# E A
A man with nothing to do
[Verse 2]
Bm E F#m
Let the years go by, let the daylight die
D A/C# E
I can't think of anything to be
Bm E F#m
The planes in the sky, the lines in the road
D A/C# E
Human hands make everything you see
[Chorus]
D A E D A/C# E/B
And if you keep busy in your mind do you think you'll see this through
Bm A/C# D Bm A/C# E
So baby here I am waiting for you
Bm A/C# E A
A man with nothing to do
Bm A/C# E A
I'm a man with nothing to do
[Middle 8]
Gmaj7 F#m
I don't tend the fields, I don't toil at the sea
Bm E F#m
So I am passing the time by letting time pass over me
[Instrumental]
F#m D Bm E
[Chorus]
D A E D A/C# E/B
So are you so busy in your mind that you can't feel it too
Bm A/C# D Bm A/C# E
So baby here I am wai-ting for you
Bm A/C# E A
A man with nothing to do
Bm A/C# E F#m
I'm a man with nothing to do
Bm A/C# E A
But wait around to fall in love with you
