Can’t Keep Up
Am
What in the world are you going to do
when the life you’re living catches up with you?
Spend your time out running around,
trying to keep up with what’s going down.

-chorus-#1 [F#m]%][Am]%][F#m]%][D][BE]
I can’t keep up with you
You live in a world that has nothing to do with whose you

Life in a hurry is not where it’s at.
Before you get there you’re ready to get back
Running your life like it’s a human race
What’s the sense of keeping such a pace?

-chorus-#2 [F#m]%][Am]%][F#m]%][D][BE]
I can’t keep up with you
You’re missing the world inside of you

Money’s your measure of everything
Don’t sound like much but it’s the song you sing
Going through the motions without a smile
Your goal in life is just on big pile
%-chorus #2-% [F#m]%][Am]%][F#m]%][D][BE]

Now it’s said and done your minds been blown
You’re living the fruits of the seeds you’ve sewn
Living so fast is not living a lot
You’ve got to find the time to find what you’ve got
%- chorus #1-% I can’t keep up with you
=ending= AAbG [F#m][F#m……

note:
I used to say this song may be a little preachy but just get over it.
In the last few years it went from a ZZ Top sounding rock tune to the current white guy reggae version on this album.
And yes that is acoustic guitar wah-wah.
