 C 
He said goodbye from the edge of the porch 
      G 
Like she'd been some casual friend 
                C                                                       F                 G    
He said"You're better off without me,I'm not what you need"like her momma had said abouT him 

     C                                             G 
He started the car pulled out of the drive didn't waste anytime lookin back 
  C                                               F                         G 
She watched him go thinkin even a stranger would show more compassion than that 


C                                       G                                            
She could've cried but she didn't have time 
                   F                       C                   G            C                  
She had a baby to feed, a pink blanket to find, to rock their little one to sleep 
C                            G                         F 
She could've laid in bed for hours giving misery the power 
         G           C 
But she didn't have time 


C                                           G 
She got a sitter and she got a job 'cause she had a promise to keep 
     C                                           F                      G 
Her day was a factory and evenin survival and night was exhaustion and sleep 
C                                                G                                 
Sometimes she felt life was passing her by and watching was all she could do 
 C                                                    F                        G 
Her friends said "You gotta get outta the house and maybe you'll meet someone new" 


C                                         G 
She could've tried but she didn't have time 
                               F                           C               G                   
She had a five years old to feed, she had ballet class, piano lessons and t-ball little  
C 
league 
C                            G                               F  
She could've laid awake for hours giving lonely nights the power 
          G          F 
But she didn't have time 

     Am                     F                            C 
Not time, where would she find the time to trust a man again 
     Am                   F                  G 
Not time, for that flat tire, a crowded parking lot and then, 
     C                     G                           
Not time, but yes have coffee with the man that got her tire fixed 
C 
She was thinking "Gosh, he's handsome" 
         F 
When he asked 
G 
"Do you have kids?" 
              C                       G                               F  
She could've lied but she didn't have time, all she said was "She's five" 
                                C               G                 C 
He said "I saw the car seat, I love kids, does she have your eyes" 
 C                          G                         F                               
And they sat and talked for hours givin destiny it's power 
   C                F                  G 
She could've been afraid to fall in love that night 
                    C 
But she didn't have time 
                   F                           G 
She could've been afraid to fall in love that night 
                    C 
But she didn't have time
