Biography:
Around the time Jack Ingram started writing songs and performing, he was studying psychology at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. "Music and psychology come from the same place," he says. "It's about studying why people tick. I write songs to figure out my world, why people act the way they do, why they make the decisions they do."
Lucky for us, Ingram chose a career in music-and discovered an altogether different kind of therapy.

Capo 2
D G A7 D
People are saying that time?ll take care of people like me
D E7 A7
And I'm living too fast, Lord you know it can?t last too much longer
D G A7 D
But little they see that their thoughts of me is my savior
D A7 D
And they really should know that the beat ought to go a little faster
[Chorus]
D G A7 D
So pick up the tempo just a little, take it on home
D E7 A7
A singer ain?t singin and the drummer?s been drinkin? too long
D G A7 D
Time?ll take care of itself so leave time alone
D A7 D
Pick up the tempo just a little, take it on home
[Change Key to]
E A B7 E
I'm wild and I'm mean, and I'm creating a scene, I'm goin' crazy
E F# B7
I'm good and I'm bad, I'm happy, I?m sad and I'm lazy
E A A7 E
I'm quiet and I?m loud, gatherin? a crowd and I like gravy
E B7 E
'Bout half off the wall but I learned it all in the Navy
[Chorus]
E A B7 E
So pick up the tempo just a little bit, take it on home
E F# B7
A singer ain?t singin and the drummer?s been drinkin? too long
E A A7 E
Time?ll take care of itself so leave time alone
E B7 E
Pick up the tempo just a little, take it on home
[Outro]
E B7 E A E
Pick up the tempo just a little, take it on home
