[Intro]
Em C G Bm
[Chorus]
Em C
Give me just a little more time,
G
Maybe we will
Bm
Find the words that will change our minds.
Em C G Bm
Oh, give me just a little more time.
Em C
Give me just a little more time,
G
I don't want to
D
Leave the weight in this place behind.
Em C G D
Oh, give me just a little more time.
(Give me just a little more time)
[Verse 1]
Em C
Ghosts white in the moonlight
G D
and the car breathes smoke in the middle of the night.
Em C G D
All tangled up in the telephone lines and dry eyes.
C G
When you hold me close,
D Em
Pretend like you don't want to let me go.
C G
And take the long way home,
D
Soft as the radio.
[Chorus]
Em C
Give me just a little more time,
G
Maybe we will
Bm
Find the words that will change our minds.
Em C G Bm
Oh, give me just a little more time.
Em C
Give me just a little more time,
G
I don't want to
D
Leave the weight in this place behind.
Em C G D
Oh, give me just a little more time.
(Give me just a little more time)
[Verse 2]
Em C G
My god how scarred we are,
D
To feel so little in somebody's arms.
Em C
Smokestacks burnin' up the boulevard
G D
And we break apart,it's the easy part.
C G
Kiss me once good night.
D Em
Your skin is glass in the dashboard lights.
C G
And we make up our minds,
D
Two for the last time.
[Bridge]
C
I have never been,
G D Em
Never been somebody to hold on to.
C
I have never been,
G D Em
Never been somebody to hold on to.
C
I have never been,
G D Em
Never been somebody to hold on to.
C
I have never been,
G D
Never been somebody to hold on to.
Em C
But if you give me more time
G Bm
(Give me more time)
Em C
If you could give me more time
G Bm
(Give me more time)
[Outro]
C
I have never been,
G D Em
Never been somebody to hold on to.
(Give me more time)
C
I have never been,
G D Em
Never been somebody to hold on to.
[Lyrics begin fading out]
C
I have never been,
G D Em
Never been somebody to hold on to.
(Give me more time)
