Lyrics

As I was walk ing down the street one day,

be a man came up to (Ebmaj7)me and asked me (Bbmaj7)what the time was (Ebmaj7)that was on my watch, I don’t know, I don’t know,

and I (D)said,

“Does an y bod y real ly (Cmaj7)know what time it is?

Does an y bod y real ly (Cmaj7)care?

If so, I can’t (Cmaj7)i mag ine why.

We’ve all got time (Cmaj7)e nough to cry.”

And I was walk ing down the street one day.

be A pret ty la dy (Ebmaj7)looked at me and (Bbmaj7)said her dia mond (Ebmaj7)watch had stopped cold dead, I don’t know, I don’t know,

and I (D)said,

“Does an y bod y real ly (Cmaj7)know what time it is?

Does an y bod y real ly (Cmaj7)care?

If so, I can’t (Cmaj7)i mag ine why.

We’ve all got time (Cmaj7)e nough to cry.”

(Cmaj7)e nough to die.”

(Gmaj7)I

don’t

(Gmaj7)care

a bout (Gmaj7)time,
