Intro: A G D 


verse 1 

         D 
I could wait until you're sleeping, you'd never hear me leaving 

Go without saying a word 

I could write it in a letter; maybe it'd be better 

Who knows? It could make it worse 
               G 
Save it for a rainy day 
                                   D 
Baby, either way, I'm damning it straight to Hell 


                      A 
Ten to three, you're half past nine 
                  G                   D 
It'll never be a good time to drop a bombshell 


verse 2 

      D  
If I did a little drinking, may numb me into thinking 

I could tell you face to face 

If I harden my heart, I'd tear us apart 

So I wouldn't have to carry this weight 
             G 
Here on my shoulder 
                                                  D 
I'd tell you it's over 'stead of keeping it to myself 


            A                          G 
Morning or midnight, it'll never be a good time 
           D 
To drop a bombshell 


Bridge 

G 
I can't love you 
                     D 
I can't love you anymore 
G 
I can't love you 
                     D 
I can't love you anymore 


verse 3 

  D 
Driving through the smoke, out of the ashes 

Looking for a place to land 

All that I know is I can't go back, so I'm driving fast as I can 
            G 
Picking up pieces, praying to Jesus 
                           D  
Lord, I'm gonna need your help 


              A 
It ain't the easy way 
                   G                          D 
There's always a price to pay for dropping a bombshell 
                      A 
Ten to three, you're half past nine 
                  G  
It'll never be a good time
