Chorus:
G  Am     C      D
I won't share you, no
G Am      C      D
I won't share you
           G
With the drive
       Am
And ambition
     C       D
The zeal I feel
         G     Am C D
This is my time

    Bm
The note I wrote
        Em
As she read, she said
          C
"Has the Perrier gone
             D7
Straight to my head
       Bm                       Em
Or is life sick and cruel, instead?"
"Yes!"
 C
No - no - no - no - no - no
 D7
No - no - no - no - no - no

Chorus:
I won't share you, no
I won't share you
With the drive
And the dreams inside
This is my time

Life tends to come and go
That's okay
As long as you know
Life tends to come and go
As long as you know
Know, know, know, know, know
Know, know, know, know
Oh...

Chorus:
I won't share you, no
I won't share you
With the drive
And the dreams inside
This is my time

I want the freedom and I want the guile
I want the freedom and the guile
Oh, life tends to come and go
As long as you know
Know, know, know, know
Know, know, know, know
Oh...

Chorus:
I won't share you, no
I won't share you
I'll see you somewhere
I'll see you sometime
Darling...
