TAKE TIME

 

Intro:  C-G-F-G-F-G-C-G-F-G-F-G

 

C               G            F            G              F     G

Somewhere round midnight she sits and she drinks herself blind

            C                G               F          G         F   G

Well she’ll laugh and she’ll smoke while she nurses her vodka and lime

Am                       Em

She’s think about places she’s never seen

F                   G

Think of the person she might have been

            C            G        F            G          F     G 

Then she’ll walk herself home and tuck herself in for the night

             C        G              F               G             F  G

And as she’s falling asleep she’ll regret what she’s done with her life

Am                       C                   F

Everything’s spinning so fast she hardly can see

Am                        Dm                      F     G

Where will she run to and how will she ever break free?

 

 

      C    G    F          G             F                       G                  

I say take time be who you are love will come when you open your eyes

C    G     F            G           F                          G              

Make time, take time to love and be loved or you’ll never know why

 

 

C-G-F-G-F-G

 

 

Somewhere ‘round day break she picks up the trail of her tears

Well she’s wandering aimlessly just like she has been for years

Her heart has grown harder with every day

Heavy and helpless from feeling this way

So she gathers her thoughts and shuffles out into the light

Under her arm is a journal it’s filled with the days of her life

Everything’s spinning so quickly it’s easy to miss

Hiding your heart like a secret is hard to resist

So I say take time be who you are love will come when you open your  eyes

Make time, take to love, and be loved or you’ll never know why

 

 

Bridge:

 

Dm           G                   C               G       F

God help her find all the things that she’s been looking for

Dm          G                     C            G         F    G   

Bring her a love she believes in, right to her own front door

 

 

Take time be who you are love will come when you open your eyes

Make time, take to love, and be loved or you’ll never know why

Somewhere ‘round midnight she sits and drinks herself blind
