Tom: G5

         G5            C5           G5   
I need love, love to ease my mind 
               B5      E5            A5   
and I need to find time, someone to call mine.

You can't hurry love  no you just have to wait.
           B5             E5                A5      D5
She said: Love don't come easy, but it's a game of give and take.
     G5                           C5            G5
You can't hurry love. No you'll just have to wait.
      B5         E5            A5         D5   D5
Just trust on a good time, no matter how long it takes.

How many heartaches must I stand, 
          E5
before I find the love to let me live again.
              C5
Right now the only thing, that keeps me hangin' on,
        D5                        C5                 D5 D5
when I feel my strenghth, oh it's almost gone, I remember Mama said:
 

     G5                        C5            G5 
You can't hurry love  no you just have to wait.
           B5            E5                A5      D5

     G5                          C5           G5
How long must I wait? How much more must I take,
        B5   E5        A5              D5 D5
before loneliness will cause my heart, heart to break?
 

   B5 
No I can't bear to live my life alone.
          E5 
I grow impatient for a love to call my own.
            C5
But when I feel that I, I can't go on.
            D5                     C5             D5  D5
Well these Precious words keep me hangin' on, I remember Mama said: 
 

     G5                        C5            G5

      G5
Now break!
 

     G5                    C5     G5
Now love, love don't come easy, 
       B5      E5         A5  D7sus-D5
but I keep on waiting, anticipating 
          G5                     C5     G5
for that soft voice to talk to me at night, 
          B5    E5       A5      D5            
for some tender arms to hold me tight. 
        G5            C5            G5
I keep waiting, oh 'till that say,  
             B5   E5                    A5     D5 D5 
but it ain't easy no, you know it ain't easy- My Mama said:
