DAGA
D
He said goodbye from the edge of the porch
A
Like she'd been some casual friend
G
He said "you're better off without me,
I'm not what you need"
A
Like her mama had said about him
D
He started the car, pulled outta the drive
A
Didn't waste any time lookin' back
G
She watched him go, thinkin' even a stranger
Bm A
Would show more compassion than that
D
She could have cried
A
But she didn't have time
G
She had a baby to feed
A G
A pink blanket to find
D
To rock their little one to sleep
A
She could have laid in bed for hours
G
Givin' misery the power
A G A G A
But she didn't have time
D
She got a sitter and she got a job
A
Cause she had a promise to keep
G
Her day was a factory and evenin' survival
A
And night was exhaustion and sleep
D
Sometimes she felt life was passin' her by
A
And watchin' was all she could do
G
Her friends said "you gotta get out of the house,
Bm A
And maybe you'll meet someone new"
D
She could have tried
A
But she didn't have time
G
She had a five year old to feed
A G
She had ballet class, piano lessons
D
And t-ball little league
A
She could have laid awake for hours
G
Givin' lonely nights the power
A Bm
But she didn't have time
G Bm
Not time, where would she find the time to trust a man again
G D
Not time, for that flat tire, a crowded parking lot and then
A G
Not time, but yes have coffee with the man that got her tire fixed
A
She was thinkin' "gosh he's handsome"
When he asked, "do you have kids?"
D
She could have lied
A
But she didn't have time
G
All she said was, "she's five"
A G
He said, "I saw the carseat, I love kids,
D
Does she have your eyes?"
A
And they sat and talked for hours
G
Giving destiny its power
A G
She coulda been afraid to fall in love that night
A D A G
But she didn't have time
A G A
She could have been afraid to fall in love that night
D A G A D
But she didn't have time
