Chorus:
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

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
