[Intro 1]
[A][D][G][D][G][Asus4][D]
[A][D][G][A][D]
It takes a little [G]time

[Verse 1]
some[A]times
To get your feet back on the [D]ground
It takes a little [G]time some[A]times
To get the Titanic turned [D]back around
It takes a [G]little time [A]sometimes
But baby, you're not goin' [D]down
It takes [G]more than you got right [A]now
Give [D]it, give it time
[G][A]

[Verse 2]
What's this [G]walkin' through my door?
I know I've [D]seen the look before
Sometimes in [G]faces on the street
[D]Sometimes in the mirror
looking back [Em]at me[G]
[A]You can[G]'t fix this pain
with money
You can't [Bm]rush a weary soul
You can't [C]sweep it under the rug,
now honey
It [A]don't take a lot to know
[D]

[Verse 3]
It takes a little [G]time some[A]times
To get your feet back on the [D]ground

It takes [G]more than you got right [A]now
Give it, give it [D]time

[Verse 5]
Well, it [G]may not be over by morning
[D]Rome wasn't built in a day
You [G]can name that thing a thousand times
[D]And it won't make it go awa[G]y
[D]Let me put[G] my arms around you
And [Bm]hold you while you weep
We've been [C]talkin'
And you know what,
I'm sick of this talk
And it's [A]nothin' that won't keep
[D]

It takes a little [G]time some[A]times
To get your feet back on the [D]ground
It takes a little [G]time some[A]times
[D]To turn the Ti[A]tan[D]ic around
It [G]takes a little time [A]sometimes
But baby, you're not going [D]down
