[Dm] A friend of mine, [C] she cries at night [F] and she calls me on the [C] phone.
[Am] [Dm] She [C] sees babies everywhere she goes [F] and she wants one of [C] her own.
[Dm] She's waited [C] long enough, she [F] says, and still can't [C] decide.
[Dm] [Am] Pretty soon she'll have to choose [Ab] and it tears her up [Am]
inside.
[Dm] She's scared, scared to run [C] out of time.
[F] I see my folks [Am] getting on [F] and I watch their bodies [C]
change.
[Dm] I know they see [C] the same in me [F] and it makes us both [C] feel strange.
[Dm] No matter how [Am] you tell yourself, [F] it's what we all [C] go through.
[F] Those lines are [C] pretty hard to take, [Ab] staring back [Am] at you.
[Dm] Scared to run [C] out of time.
[Bb] When did the [F] choices get so hard?
[C] There's so [Dm] much more at stake.
[F] Life gives my [C] the press when there's less [Ab] of it to [Am]
waste.
[Dm]
Scared to run [C] out of time.
Just when I thought I had enough [F] and all my tears [C] were shed.
[F] [Dm] No promise left [C] unbroken, there [F] were no paper words [C] I said.
[Dm] You came [C] along and showed me I [F] could leave it all [C] behind.
[Dm] You opened up [E] my heart again and that [Ab] much to my [Am]
surprise.
[Dm] I found love, darling.
Love every day, good time.
Love every [Am] day, good time.
I found love, darling.
Love every day, good [Dm] time.
Love every day, good time.
I found love, baby.
Love every day, [C] good time.
