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
