E                 A     B 
It takes a little time sometimes 
B                                     E  
to get your feet back on the ground 
E                 A     B 
It takes a little time sometimes 
B                                        E 
to get the titanic turned back around 
E                 A     B 
It takes a little time sometimes 
B                            E 
but baby you are not going down 
E                 A     B 
It takes more than you got right now 
B                    (E) 
give it, give it time

Verse I: 
A                            
What’s this walking through my door 
G#/E 
I know I’ve seen the look before 
A 
Sometimes on faces on the street 
G#/E                     
And sometimes at the mirror looking back at me 
A 
You can’t fix the pain with money 
E 
You cant’t rush a weary soul 
D 
You can’t sweep it under the rug now honey 
B 
But it take not a lot to know 

Chorus 

Verse II : 
A 
Well it may not be over my morning 
G#/E 
But Rome wasn’t build in a day 
A 
You can name that thing a thousand times 
E 
It won’t make it go away 
A 
Let me put my arms around you 
E 
And hold you while you weep 
D 
We ‘ve been talking and you know what, I’m sick of this talk 
B 
And it’s nothing that won’t keep 

Chorus: 
Chorus freely again but modulates a whole tone up.  

F#              B    C# 
Takes a little time sometime 
C#                      F# 
to get the.... 


You can’t fix the pain with money 
You cant’t rush a weary soul 
You can’t sweep it under the rug now honey 
But it take not a lot to know 

Chorus ad lib
