[E] [B]
[A] [B] [E] It's like I'm sitting at a bus stop [B] waiting for a train
[A] Exactly how I got here [B] is hard to explain
[E] My heart's in the right place
[D#] What's [B] left of it, I guess
[A] My heart ain't the problem
[B] It's my mind.
That's a total mess [E] with these rickety old legs
[D#m] And these watery eyes
[A] It's hard to believe
[E] [B] That I [E] could pass [B] for anybody's [E] prize and here's what I know about
[B] the gifts that God gave
[A] Are you can't take them with you
[B] When you [C#m] go [B] to the grave it [E] ain't over yet
[C#m] Ask someone who ought to know not [F#m] so very long ago
[B] We were both hung out to dry
It [E] ain't over yet
[C#m] You can mark my word don't [F#m] care what you think you heard
[C#m] We're [B] still [E] learning how to [B] fly
It [E] ain't over yet
For fools like me
Who [B] were built for the chase?
It [A] takes the right kind of woman
To [B] help you put it all in place.
It [E] only happened once in my life, [B] but man you should have seen
[A] Her hair two shades of foxtail red [B] her [C#m] eyes and far [B]-out seat blue green
I [E] got caught up making a name for myself.
[B] You know what that's about
[A] One day your ship comes rolling in [B] the next day.
It rolls right back out and you [E] can't take for granted
[B] None of this shit
The [A]
higher up you fly boys
[B] The harder it is you're gonna get hit.
It [E] ain't over yet
[C#m] I'll say this about that
You [F#m] can get up off the mat
[A] You [B] can lay there [E] till you [B] die
It [E] ain't over yet
Here's [C#m] the truth my friend
You [F#m] can't back it in [C#m] [B] and we both know why it [E] ain't over yet
[C#m]
silly [A] boys blind to get their first think [E] of
Second [B] chances as sometimes curse [C#m] I've known you [A] forever
And ever it's true [E] if you came by it easy
[B] You wouldn't be you make [C#m] me laugh
Make me [A] cry
You [E] make me forget myself
Backing down on my luck
Kept me up for days
You [A] were there with the right word
[B] To help me crawl out of the [E] maze and when I'd almost convinced myself I [B] was hit by the now
Are [A] you stepped up with a warning shot?
[B] Fired sweet [G#m] and low across the bow.
No, [E] you don't walk on water
And [B] your sarcasm stings
[A] But the way you move through this whole world
[B] Sure makes a case for angel wings.
[E] I was halfway to the bottom [B] when you threw me that line
Then [A] I'll quote you never bit him [B] get your head out of your own behind
It [E] ain't over yet
What [C#m] you want there?
one [F#m] more cigarette
[A] Ain't [B] gonna [E] send you to [B] the grave
It [E] ain't over yet.
I seen [C#m] you know
Girlfriend ain't sure [F#m]
living in great big [B] old sparkle in her eye
[E] Ain't over yet
