DHe (xx0232@1)said goodbye from the edge of the porch 
     ALike (x02220@1)she'd been some casual friend
                GHe (320003@1)said "You're better off without me, I'm not what you need." 
         ALike (x02220@1)her momma had said about him
   D (xx0232@1)                     
He started the car, pulled out of the drive
       ADidn't (x02220@1)waste any time lookin' back
    G (320003@1)            
She watched him go thinkin' even a stranger 
      Bm (x24432@1)                      AWould (x02220@1)show more compassion than that


[Chorus:]
             D (xx0232@1)                         AShe (x02220@1)could've cried but she didn't have time
                    GShe (320003@1)had a baby to feed a pink blanket to find
                            DTo (xx0232@1)rock their little one to sleep
                               A (x02220@1)                   GShe (320003@1)could've laid in bed for hours giving misery the power
        A (x02220@1)         GBut (320003@1)she didn't have time


D (xx0232@1)     
She got a sitter and she got a job 
       A'Cause (x02220@1)she had a promise to keep
    G (320003@1)                                   
Her day was a factory and evenin' survival 
    AAnd (x02220@1)night was exhaustion and sleep
    D (xx0232@1)                                    
Sometimes she felt life was passing her by 
    AAnd (x02220@1)watchin' was all she could do
     G (320003@1)                      
Her friends said you gotta get outta the house 
     Bm (x24432@1)                     AAnd (x02220@1)maybe you'll meet someone new


[Chorus:]
            D (xx0232@1)                        AShe (x02220@1)could've tried but she didn't have time
                              GShe (320003@1)had a five-year-old to feed
                                                       DShe (xx0232@1)had ballet class, piano lessons and T-ball Little League
                            A (x02220@1)                            GShe (320003@1)could've laid awake for hours givin' lonely nights the power
        A (x02220@1)          Bm (x24432@1) 
But she didn't have time


[Bridge:]
                           G (320003@1)                          Bm (x24432@1) 
Not time, where would she find the time to trust a man again
                        G (320003@1)                             D (xx0232@1) 
Not time, for that flat tire, a crowded parking lot and then,
                        A (x02220@1)                                         GNot (320003@1)time, but yes, have coffee with the man that got her tire fixed
                                                  A (x02220@1)
She was thinking, 'Gosh, he's handsome' when he asked

Do you have kids?


[Chorus:]
             D (xx0232@1)                        A (x02220@1)                
She could've lied but she didn't have time 
                               G (320003@1)
All she said was "She's five." 
                                  
He said, "I saw the car seat, I love kids -
                   DDoes (xx0232@1)she have your eyes?"
                            A (x02220@1)      
And they sat and talked for hours 
                    GGivin' (320003@1)destiny the power
                                               
She could've been afraid to fall in love that night
        A (x02220@1)         D (xx0232@1)        ABut (x02220@1)she didn't have time

G (320003@1)                                           A (x02220@1)   
She could've been afraid to fall in love that night
                    G (320003@1)      D (xx0232@1)         
But she didn't have time
