1. I need a little time to think it over,

D

I need a little space, just on my own.

D

I need a little time to find my freedom, I need a little...

D G A

Funny how quick the milk turns sour, isn't it, isn't it ?

D G A

Your face has been looking like that for hours, hasn't it, hasn't it ?

G A

Promises, promises turn to dust,

D Em G A

wedding bells just turn to rust, trust into mistrust.

D

2. I need a little room to find myself,

D

I need a little space to work it out.

D

I need a little room all alone, I need a little...

D G A

You need a little room for your big head, don't you, don't you ?

D G A

You need a little space for a thousand beds, won't you, won't you ?

G A

Lips that promise, fear the worst,

D Em G A

tongue so sharp, the bubble burst, just into unjust.

3. I've had a little time to find the truth,

D

now I've had a little room to check what's wrong.

D

I've had a little time, and I still love you, I've had a little...

D G A

You had a little time, and you had a little fun, didn't you, didn't you ?

D G A

While you had yours, do you think I had none, do you, do you ?

G A

The freedom that you wanted bad,

D Em G A

is yours for good, I hope you're glad, sad into unsad.

D

3. I had a little time to think it over,

D

had a little room to work it out.

D

I found a little courage to call it off,

D D

I've had a little time, I've had a little time,

D D - D

I've had a little time, I've had a little time.
