[Verse 1]
GDDsus4
My father died a year ago today.
EmG/DC
The rooster started crowing when they carried Dad away.
GEm
There beside my mother, in the living room, I stood,
A7DDsus4
With my brothers and my sister, knowing Dad was gone for good.
G
Well, I stayed at home just long enough,
DDsus4
To lay him in the ground and then I,
EmG/DC
Caught a plane to do a show up north in Detroit town.
GDGCGsus4/DG
Because I'm older now and I've got no time to cry.
[Chorus]
G/AG/BCDDsus4
I've got no time to look back, I've got no time to see,
GG/BC
The pieces of my heart that have been ripped away from me.
EmG
And if the feelings starts to coming, I've learned to stop 'em fast.
A7A7/BDDsus4
`Cause I don't know, if I let 'em go, they might not wanna pass.
GDDsus4
And there's just so many people trying to get me on the phone.
EmG/D
And there's bills to pay, and songs to play,
C
And a house to make a home.
GDD/CG/BCGsus4/DGD7
I guess I'm older now and I've got no time to cry.
[Verse 2]
GDDsus4
I can still remember when I was a girl
EmG/DC
So many things have changed so much here in my world.
GEm
I remember sitting on the front yard when an ambulance went by,
A7DDsus4
And just listening to those sirens I would break down and cry.
G
But now I'm walking now I'm talking,
DDsus4
Doing just what I'm supposed to do.
EmG/DC
Working overtime to make sure that I don't come unglued.
GDGCGsus4/DG
I guess I'm older now and I 've got no time to cry.
[Chorus]
G/AG/BCDDsus4
I've got no time to look back, I've got no time to see,
GG/BC
The pieces of my heart that have been ripped away from me.
EmG
And if the feelings starts to coming, I've learned to stop 'em fast.
A7A7/BDDsus4
`Cause I don't know, if I let 'em go, they might not wanna pass.
GDDsus4
And there's just so many people trying to get me on the phone.
EmG/D
And there's bills to pay, and songs to play,
C
And a house to make a home.
GDD/CG/BCGsus4/DGD7
I guess I'm older now and I've got no time to cry.
[Verse 3]
GDDsus4
I sit down on the sofa an' I watch the evening news:
EmG/DC
There's a half a dozen tragedies from which to pick and choose.
GG/F#Em
The baby that was missin' was found in a ditch today.
A7A7/BDDsus4
And there's bombs a'flying and people dying not so far away.
G
Now I'll take a beer from the 'fridgerator,
DDsus4
And go sit out in the yard and with a
EmG/DC
cold one in my hand I'm gonna bite down and swallow hard.
GDGCGsus4/DG
Because I'm older now and I've got no time to cry.
[Chorus]
G/AG/BCDDsus4
I've got no time to look back, an' I've got no time to see,
GG/BC
The pieces of my heart that have been ripped away from me.
EmG
And if the feelings starts to coming, I've learned to stop 'em fast.
A7A7/BDDsus4
`Cause I don't know, if I let 'em go, they might not wanna pass.
GDDsus4
And there's just so many people trying to get me on the phone.
EmG/D
And there's bills to pay, and songs to play,
C
And a house to make a home.
GDD/CG/BCGsus4/D
I guess I'm older now and I've got no time to cry.
[Outro]
GDD/CG/BC
I guess I'm older now and I just ain't got no time to cry.
GCGCG
No time to cry, no time to cry, no time to cry
