E A  4x
 
E           A                E
No time for making my moves, no time
            A                    E
No time for hitting the grooves, no time
 
E                A
Summer comes and summers gone
E                 A
Winter sings it's very sad song
    E               A
The saddest part of all it seems
E           A
How we lose most of our dreams
 
E           A                E
No time for making my moves, no time
                  A                  E
I got no time for hitting the booze, no time
 
break
 
    E                   A
The clock it turns at a rapid pace
    E            A
And takes us to another place
    E                  A
The train it goes from here to there
E            A
Just left me standing here
 
E           A                E
No time for making my moves, no time
            A                    E
No time for hitting the grooves, no time
 
break
 
  E                  A
I had the blues this morning
  E         A
I cried all day
  E                  A
I guess you lose the blues in the morning
E              A
If you cry the blues away
 
E           A                E
No time for making my moves, no time
            A                    E
No time for hitting the grooves, no time . . .

This is an old JJ Cale tune that we play in my little duo/trio. The chorus, which is the opening set of lines sung in this song, is correct, but the verse section is way off. The chord progression through that section of the song is E-G-A-E, repeated twice. For example: The [E]clock it turns at a [G]rapid pace And [A]takes us to another [E]place The [E]train it goes from [G]here to there Just [A]left me [E]standing there Play along with the recording of this tune from JJ's album Travel-log and you'll clearly hear the proper progression for that section of the song.
