 key:
 intro note
Don't  tell me the reason that you're calling
 Is to see  if I'm all right since you've been gone.
 'Cause  I know you and I know why we're talking
You're  wanting me to say I'm barely hanging on
 Well, maybe  that was true for  a night or two  But now,  I got better  things to  do
 I could wash  my car in the rain Change my new guitar strings
 Mow the yard just the same as I did yesterday
I  don't need to waste my time  crying over you  I got better  things to do.
Maybe  when I don't have so much going Or  quite so many irons in the fire
I'll  take the time to miss you like you're hoping
 But now,  I can't put forth the effort it requires
 Well, I'd love  to talk to you,  but then, I'd  miss Donahue
 That's right,  I got better  things to do.
 go to chorus
 Check  the air in my tires Straighten my stereo wires
Count  the stars in the sky or just get on with my life
I  don't need to waste my time  crying over you
 I got better  things to do  I got better  things to do.
