She Didnt Have Time Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

DHe said goodbye from the edge of the porch

 Like Ashe'd been some casual friend

 He said "You're Gbetter off without me, I'm not what you need."

 Like her Amomma had said about him

 He Dstarted the car, pulled out of the drive

 Didn't Awaste any time lookin' back

 She Gwatched him go thinkin' even a stranger

 Would Bmshow more compassion than Athat

Chorus

]

 She could've Dcried but she didn't have tiAme

 She had a baby to feGed a pink blanket to find

 To rock their little one to Dsleep

 She could've laid in bed for hoAurs giving misery the Gpower

 But she Adidn't have Gtime

DShe got a sitter and she got a job

 'Cause Ashe had a promise to keep

 Her Gday was a factory and evenin' survival

 And Anight was exhaustion and sleep

 SomeDtimes she felt life was passing her by

 And Awatchin' was all she could do

 Her fGriends said you gotta get outta the house

 And mBmaybe you'll meet someone Anew

Chorus

]

 She could'veD tried but she didn't have Atime

 She had a five-year-old to feeGd

 She had ballet class, piano lessons and T-ball Little LDeague

 She could've laid awake for Ahours givin' lonely nights the Gpower

 But she Adidn't have tBmime

Bridge

]

 Not time, where would she fGind the time to trust a man aBmgain

 Not time, for that flat Gtire, a crowded parking lot and Dthen,

 Not time, but yes, have Acoffee with the man that got her tire fixed G

 She was thinking, 'Gosh, he's handsome' when he asAked

Do you have kids?

Chorus

]

 She could've Dlied but she didn't have tiAme

 All she said was "She's five." G

He said, "I saw the car seat, I love kids -

 Does she have your Deyes?"

 And they sat and talked for Ahours

 Givin' destiny the pGower

She could've been afraid to fall in love that night

 But she Adidn't have Dtime A

GShe could've been afraid to fall in love that Anight

 But she didn't have Gtime D
