The news came in the post today
G C
That changed his systematic ways
G C
His bank account is empty now
G C
He's thrown away his marriage vows

[Verse]
G C
The Rat-Race has become too much
G C
His pension scheme is out of touch
G C
His boss can stick his lousy job
G C
Six months to live is all he's got
[Chorus]
Am F D
Every second counts
Am F D
Every second counts
[Verse]
G C
The years gone by can't be replaced
G C
He recollects the time of waste.
G C
Moments lost he could have used
G C
Like college, marriage, work and school.
[Chorus]
Am F D
Every second counts
Am F D
Every second counts

G C
He took it easy, he toed the line
G C
But precious is the gift of time
G C
The price of being a lazy slob
G C
Is fatal race against the clock
[Chorus]
Am F D
Every second counts

Every second counts
