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