D                       A              D
Well I'm busy not crying and I'm too tied up to care
                                        A
Not thinking 'bout her is a 24-hour aff air
G
I can't weep, I can't worry
D                      G
My whole life's just a hustle and hurry
D                    A                   D
Busy not crying over somebody that ain't there.
 
[Verse]
D
Early each morning I roll out of bed
G
Jumping all around and shaking my head
D                                               A
Trying to steer clear of the things she left be hind
          D
There's a pink pair of slippers and a coffee cup
G
One I can't fill, one not to fill up
    D                    A                       D
Any more not to do and I think I'm gonna lose my mind
 
[Chorus]
         D                       A              D
Well I'm busy not crying and I'm too tied up to care
                                        A
Not thinking 'bout her is a 24-hour aff air
G
I can't weep, I can't worry
D                      G
My whole life's just a hustle and hurry
D                    A                   D
Busy not crying over somebody that ain't there.

[Verse]
D
Moving each day at a mighty quick pace
    G
But my heart stays in the same sad place
D                                         A
Nothing that heavy could ever catch up to me
   D
It takes all the fuel I can fit in my car
   G
To ride around the spots where the memories are
           D                     A                       D
And it's a full-blown chore over looking what's plain to see

[Outro]
               D                       A              D
That's why I'm busy not crying and I'm too tied up to care
                                        A
Not thinking 'bout her is a 24-hour aff air
G
I can't weep, I can't worry
D                      G
My whole life's just a hustle and hurry
D                    A                   D
Busy not crying over somebody that ain't there.
