CHORUS:
A            F#m         A      F#m
Don't, honey don't, go away, no no
          A               F#m
Don't you hear, don't you hear,
        A          F#m
What I say, what I say
         A            F#m
Give me time, give me time
          A                           F#m
I'm gonna make your love as strong as mine

But I know Rome wasn't built in a day          Now,

VERSE 1:
A                                  A
You know that I love you dear with all my heart
  F#m                          F#m
I know that you didn't love me from the start
      A                            D
But I planted a little seed in your heart I know
       E7                  A
And it just needs time to grow, baby


CHORUS:
A            F#m         A      F#m
Don't, honey don't, go away, no no
          A               F#m
Don't you hear, don't you hear,
        A          F#m
What I say, what I say
         A            F#m
Give me time, give me time
          A                           F#m
I'm gonna make your love as strong as mine
       A                E7        F#m       A
But I know Rome wasn't built in a day          (Listen to me honey now)



VERSE 2:
A                            A
How would Romeo feel if his Juliet
    F#m                                 F#m
Had turned down his advances and played hard to get
         A                          D
He would never let this bother him, this I know
        E7                          A
Because where there's light there's hope, baby



CHORUS-outro:
A            F#m         A      F#m
Don't go away, no no
          A                   F#m
Don't you hear now, don't you hear now,
        A          F#m
What I say, what I say
         A            F#m
Give me time, give me time
          A                           F#m
I'm gonna make your love as strong as mine
       A                E7        F#m       A
But I know Rome wasn't built in a day


A
Don't you hear me telling you that
A           E7         F#m
Rome wasn't built in a day
A
Don't you realize that
A           E7         F#m
Rome wasn't built in a day
