Too bad for me my time, is just time, and all the money in the world isn't mine. I got a whole new set of friends. I'm making sure all my time's well spent. Can't afford to wait for anyone. Yeah I know I'm going nowhere, doesn't mean I gotta go there now. But I could not do it when they paid me. My failure to come through, that's my favourite favour. I could not do it when they paid me. My failure to come through, that's my favourite favour. I know some day I'll cancel myself out. When I try, you know, I do everything at once. I'm a walking contradiction man. Well I'd like to take you somewhere... But I could not do it when they paid me. My failure to come through, that's my biggest failure. I could not do it when they paid me. My failure to come through, that's my favourite failure. End So that's it... At the old live shows, they (Matt and Drew) played with Boss Blues Drivers for distortion. I own one as well as this is what is used on the record too. There's probably a few parts that are a bit off in this tab, so if you find them, good for you. At least it will be good starting point. can_of_tin@hotmail.com for whatever.
