Am We were thinking we were wise F There was a moment, you and I C We saw it stretch across our lives G Thinking we could make it if we tried And now this car won't drive this road There are some things I should've known There are some things on my mind But I won't pick up the line Chorus: C F 'Cause I don't have the heart to admit Em G I don't wanna finish what we started C F I think you could be an honest man Em G But I’m a woman who's just too guarded C F We know it's a big mistake Am G Like the ones we made C F Nothing left to do, but let it lie Em F C Let's not wait till water's running dry Now I don't wanna compromise 'Cause, baby, both of us have tried You know it hurts me letting go It hurts me more than I can show I close my eyes, see an open road There are some things I wanna know There are some things on my mind But I don't know how to see it right Chorus C Don't wait up for me I'm not coming home G I'm not tired F Gonna drive all night C Don't wait up for me I'm not answering my phone G F I'n headed north on the 5 till it's light C Don't wait for me, don't wait for me G F G F Might not hear from me for a while Chorus: 'Cause I don't have the heart to admit We can never finish what we started You couldn't be an honest man So how could I be the woman you wanted? It took us so long to find What was always there in our eyes Nothing left to do but cut the line Let's not wait till water's running dry, dry You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsAm C Em F G Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
