Not This Time
Cultured Pearls
Tabbed by: Leah Comia
Intro: C Am F Fm G
C Am F Fm
C
I've been sittin' in my bed
With a glass in my hand
E7
Tryin' to figure out a way
For me to understand
Am Bb
To this talk we've just had
C
The questions I had asked about yesterday
E7
About the sadness in your eyes
But the biggest smile
Am Bb C
Are you facing away?
F
The questions I had asked about how you feel
E7
Only eyes reveal
Am D7
Your answer's not for real
F Fm
But I can't read your mind
G C
Not this time
Chorus:
Am
I just want to know what you're going through
F
I don't feel wrong about asking you
Fm
I can't read your mind
G C
Not this time
C
I know that there are times
When you don't want to say
E7
That there are problems in your head
That you can't explain
Am Bb C
I have been that way
F
Maybe there's a hug or a kiss or two
E7
But not forever do
Am D7
If only I'd reach you
F Fm
But I can't read your mind
G C
Not this time
(Repeat Chorus)
Instrumental: C Am F Fm G
C
Maybe I'm a child
Maybe I'm a woman
E7
Maybe I am old
Maybe I said something
Am Bb C
Your reasons to push me away
F
Maybe I have laughed
Maybe I have cried
E7
But never did I try
Am D7
To put hurt on your side
F Fm
But I can't read your mind
G C
Not this time
(Repeat Chorus)
