Verse 1:
D Em
You say you're clearing out, the devil's in your eyes
G
No time to walk, no time to talk,
D
no time for long goodbyes.
D Em
The ticket's in your hand, you've made that final call,
G D
The hard words flying by like punches in a barroom brawl.
Chorus:
Bm A
We've made a mess of things, it makes no difference now
D F# G
let's chalk it all up to the blues.
D G
Little girl, think it over one time
D G
Little girl, think it over one time
D A Em A
Little girl, think it over one time
Em G D
Before you break in your walking shoes.
Verse 2:
D Em
I am just what I am, I won't apologize
G D
So if you go you'll surely know you'll have to come to realize
D Em
Love don't walk away, only people do
G D
So if you go or if you stay you know I'll keep on loving you.
(chorus)
Verse 3:
D Em
We've made the hard time sing, we've made the miles roll by,
G D
we've broken both our wings and still we've had the will to fly.
D Em
It ain't the memories, that make me talk this way,
G D
it's more like someone pulled the plug before we ever saw the play.
(chorus)
Verse 4:
D Em
I've read a thousand books, I've been behind the wheel,
G D
I've known you all my life but still I can't feel how you feel.
D Em
It's only you for me, just like that whooping crane,
G D
who has one wife for all his life and if she dies, he'll do the same.
(Chorus)
