Busy Not Crying

Lyrics

Well I'm busy not crying and I'm too tied up to care
Not thinking 'bout her is a 24-hour affair
I can't weep, I can't worry
My whole life's just a hustle and hurry
Busy not crying over somebody that ain't there.

Early each morning I roll out of bed
Jumping all around and shaking my head
Trying to steer clear of the things she left behind
There's a pink pair of slippers and a coffee cup
One I can't fill, one not to fill up
Any more not to do and I think I'm gonna lose my mind

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

         E                       B              E
Well I'm busy not crying and I'm too tied up to care
                                       B
Not thinking 'bout her is a 24-hour affair
A 
I can't weep, I can't worry
E                       A
My whole life's just a hustle and hurry
E                     B                     E
Busy not crying over somebody that ain't there.
 
 
E 
Early each morning I roll out of bed
A 
Jumping all around and shaking my head
E                                              B  
Trying to steer clear of the things she left behind
          E    
There's a pink pair of slippers and a coffee cup
A 
One I can't fill, one not to fill up
    E                     B                       E
Any more not to do and I think I'm gonna lose my mind
 
 
Moving each day at a mighty quick pace
But my heart stays in the same sad place
Nothing that heavy could ever catch up to me
It takes all the fuel I can fit in my car
To ride around the spots where the memories are
And it's a full-blown chore overlooking what's plain to see
