Chorus:
It takes a little time sometimes
to get your feet back on the ground 
It takes a little time sometimes
to get the titanic turned back around 
It takes a little time sometimes
but baby you are not going down
It takes more than you got right now
B (E)
give it, give it time
(instrumental interlude like intro)
   
 
   
 
Verse I:
What’s this walking through my door
G#/E
I know I’ve seen the look before
Sometimes on faces on the street
G#/E
And sometimes at the mirror looking back at me
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
Chorus
Verse II :
Well it may not be over my morning
G#/E
But Rome wasn’t build in a day
You can name that thing a thousand times
It won’t make it go away
Let me put my arms around you
And hold you while you weep
We ‘ve been talking and you know what, I’m sick of this talk
And it’s nothing that won’t keep
Chorus:
Chorus freely again but modulates a whole tone up.
Takes a little time sometime
to get the.... 
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
Chorus ad lib
