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
