Just Sit Still
By Radney Foster
Capo 2 (preferably on bottom 5 strings making it drop D tuning
In a higher key but you can get by on capoing all 6 string.
The [D]big shot stuck in front of me don'[G]t know what he's doing
His [A]blood pressure and cell phone bill, they'r[G]e gonna be his ruin
You see [D]minutes measure time and we all [D/F#]know that time is money
And this [G]traffic jam is God's little joke bu[A]t he don't think it's funny
Chorus 1:
To just sit [G]still, kill some [G/F#]time
Settle [Em]down, enjoy the [A]ride
Take a [G]breath, take it [G/F#]slow
Relax [Em]man, let it [A]go, just sit [G]still
A young man flips the bird at what his elders have to say
Respect what time is doing, boy, or life will tick away
And all that testosterone that begs forgiveness now
Hell, no one ever really held against you anyhow
Chorus 2:
To just sit still, kill some time
Shoot The breeze, enjoy the ride
Take a breath, take it slow
Relax son, let it go, just sit still
Time's a precious gift, a treasure, yes, it's true
So I treasure every moment that I get to waste with you
This crazy world is gonna spin no matter what we do
Come on darlin', we need a nap, it's hot this afternoon.
Chorus 3:
To just sit still, kill some time
Hold my hand, enjoy the ride
Take a breath, take it slow
Relax son, let it go, just sit still
Life's too precious to just let go
So just sit still
