Intro:
G+G  A/GA/G  Gsus2Gsus2  G6/9


Verse:
D MajorD
He said goodbye from the edge of the porch
   A augmentedA
Like she'd been some casual friend
        G+G
He said "You're better off without me, I'm not what you need."
     A7sus4A7sus4        A7A7
Like her momma had said about him
    D MajorD
He started the car, pulled out of the drive
    A augmentedA
Didn't waste any time lookin' back
      G+G
She watched___ him go thinkin' even a stranger
   B minorBm            A augmentedA
Would show more compassion than that

Chorus:
       D MajorD              A augmentedA
She could've cried but she didn't have time
           G+G      A/GA/G       G+G
She had a baby to feed  a pink blanket to find
                 D MajorD
To rock their little one to sleep___
                 A augmentedA             G+G
She could've laid in bed for hours_ giving misery the power
    Asus4Asus4     G+G   A/GA/G  Gsus2Gsus2  G6/9
But she didn't have time


Verse:
D MajorD
She got a sitter and she got a job
    A augmentedA
'Cause she had a promise to keep
  G+G
Her day was a factory and evenin' survival
  A7sus4A7sus4          A7A7
And night was exhaustion and sleep
     D MajorD
Sometimes  she felt life was passing her by
  A augmentedA
And watchin' was all she could do
     G+G
Her friends  said you gotta get outta the house
   B minorBm            A augmentedA
And maybe you'll meet someone new

Chorus:
      D MajorD             A augmentedA
She could've tried but she didn't have time
                G+G
She had a five-year-old to feed
    A/GA/G     G+G                    D MajorD
She had ballet class,  piano lessons and T-ball Little League
                 A augmentedA               G+G
She could've laid awake for hours__ givin' lonely nights the power
    A augmentedA      B minorBm
But she didn't have time


Bridge:
               G+G                B minorBm
Not time, where would she find  the time to trust a man again
               G+G                D MajorD
Not time, for that flat tire,  a crowded parking lot and then,
              A augmentedA                   Gadd9Gadd9
Not time, but yes, have coffee with the man that got her tire fixed
                         Asus4Asus4
She was thinking, 'Gosh, he's handsome' when he asked

Do you have kids?


Chorus:
       D MajorD             A augmentedA
She could've lied but she didn't have time
                G+G
All she said was "She's five."
          A/GA/G     G+G
He said, "I saw the car seat, I love kids -
          D MajorD
Does she have your eyes?"
              A augmentedA
And they sat and talked for hours
            G+G
Givin' destiny its power
          A/GA/G         G+G
She could've been afraid to fall in love  that night
    Asus4Asus4     D MajorD     A augmentedA
But she didn't have time
G+G             A/GA/G  G+G        A augmentedA
 She could've been afraid to fall__ in love that night
          G+G    D MajorD
