A            G#m           C#m
There's only one thing I'm sure of
F#m                   B   C#m D#
Loving's good 'til it ends
A               G#m          C#m
And you came to Kansas for romances
   F#m                   B D#m B
So soak it up while you can
           A      G#m   C#m            A#m
As long as you belong to me (Ah, ah, ah)

E
Feel the darkness comin'
G#      F#
Take my mind off, honey
E                                A
Crawl in the backseat, you can drive
E
Got my heartbeat racin'
G#          F#
There's no God we're chasin'
E                                A Am
Try to keep your love until you die

Chorus:
                       E   G#    G
It's only a matter of time, time, time
F#m                    E   G#    G     F#m
It's only a matter of time, time, time

Let the world rip your heart out
And stay as long as you can
You came through Texas, stopped in Jackson,
paid your ransom
There's no place you ain't ran (Ooh, ah)
But, baby, you belong to me (Ah, ah, ah)

Feel the darkness comin'
Take my mind off, honey
Crawl in the backseat, you can drive
Got my heartbeat racin'
There's no God we're chasin'
Try to keep the lovin' 'til you die

Chorus

A              Am              G#m     F#m
Every time I'm outta love, you give me some
A              G#m             F#m      E
Every time I'm outta love, you give me some
Every time I'm outta love, you give me some
Every time I'm outta love

Every time I'm outta love, you give me some
Every time I'm outta love, you give me some
(Ooh-ohh)
Every time I'm outta love, you give me some
(Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah)
Every time I'm outta love

Feel the darkness comin'
Take my mind off, honey
Crawl in the backseat, you can drive
Got my heartbeat racin'
There's no God we're chasin'
Try to keep the lovin' 'til you die

Chorus:
It's only a matter of time, time, time
It's only a matter of time, time, time
It's only a matter of
So take your time
So take your time

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm-mm
Mm-hmm, amen
