D                     Bm
Oh baby, I think it's time
          D                             Bm
Time for us, time for us to cross that line
                    D                                   Bm
Cause when you're feelin', when you're feelin' you been had
              D                              Bm
Don't you let it, don't you let it get you sad

G                               C
Cause there's a time for you to be forgiven
G                        C               D
Turn the other cheek and brush that pain away
G                       C
There's just no use in tryin' to get even
G                 C            A
Girl I think it's time to walk away

D                            Bm
I think it's time, to be thinkin'
           D           Bm
Of other towns, movin' on
                  D                                Bm
Cause we've been down, we've been down for so long now
               D                         Bm
And there's no place, no place to go but out

G                         C
Out on the road where the semis howl
G                     C                D
Baby hitch a ride on somethin' movin' fast
          G                   C
Where the rain and wind don't blow so cold
G                     C                A
Baby we could build a life and make it last

        D              Bm     A    D
Make it last, make it last
