A Little Time [D]
Beautiful South
[D] I need a little time To think it over
I need a little space Just on my own
I need a little time To find my freedom
I need a little...
[D]Funny how quick the milk turns sour [G] Isn't it, [A] isn't it
[D] Your face has been looking like that for hours [G] Hasn't it, [A] hasn't it
[Single strum]
[G*]Promises, promises [A*] turn to dust
[D*] Wedding bells just [Em*] turn to rust
[G*] Trust into [A*] mistrust
[D] I need a little room To find myself
I need a little space To work it out
I need a little room All alone
I need a little...
[D] You need a little room for your big head [G] Don't you, [A] don't you
[D] You need a little space for a thousand beds [G] Won't you, [A] won't you
[Single strum]
[G*] Lips that promise - [A*] fear the worst
[D*]Tongue so sharp - the [Em*] bubble burst
[G*] Just into [A*] unjust
[D] I've had a little time To find the truth
Now I've had a little room To check what's wrong
I've had a little time And I still love you
I've had a little...
[D] You had a little time and you had a little fun [G]Didn't you, [A] didn't you
[D] Well you had yours, do you think I had none [G] Do you, [A] do you
[Single strum]
[G*] The freedom that you [A*] wanted bad Is [D*] yours for good
I [Em*] hope you're glad
[G*] Sad into [A*] unsad
[D]I had a little time To think it over
Had a little room To work it out
I found a little courage To call it off
I've had a little time x4
