Rodney Crowell - It Aint Over Yet Chords

[Verse]
D
It’s like I’m sitting at a bus stop
              A/C#
waiting for a train
              G
Exactly how I got here
   A
is hard to explain
D
My heart’s in the right place
       A/C#
what’s left of it I guess
   G
My heart ain’t the problem
        A
it’s my mind that’s a total mess
           D
With these rickety old legs
          A/C#
and these watery eyes
     G
It’s hard to believe
     A
that I could pass for anybody’s prize
    D
And here’s what I know about
    A/C#
the gifts that God gave
    G
You can’t take em with you
         A
when you go to the grave

[Chorus]
         D             Bm
It ain't over yet ask someone who ought to know
           Em                A
not so very long ago we were both hung out to dry
         D                Bm
It ain't over yet you can mark my words
       Em                                       A
Don't care what you think you heard we’re still learning how to fly
         D
It’ aint over yet

[Verse]
     D
For fools like me
         A/C#
who were built for the chase
             G
It takes the right kind of woman
   A
to help you put it all in place
   D
It only happened once in my life
    A/C#
but man you should have seen
    G
Her hair two shades of foxtail red
    A
her eyes some far out sea blue green
      D
I got caught up making a name for myself
              A/C#
you know what that’s about
    G
One day your ship comes rolling in
    A
the next day it just rolls back out
              D
And you can’t take for granted
             A/C#
none of this sh*t
    G
The higher up you fly boys
    A
the harder it is you’re gonna get hit

[Chorus]
         D                  Bm
It ain't over yet  I’ll say this about that
        Em                            A
you can get up off the mat or you can lay there til you die
         D                   Bm
It ain't over yet here’s the truth my friend
          Em                 A
you can’t pack it in and we both know why
         D
It ain't over yet

[Bridge]
Bm                 G
Silly boys blind to get there first think of
D                 A
second chances as some kind of curse
Bm                G
I’ve known you for-ever and ever
       D                   A
If you came by it easy you wouldn’t be you
            Bm                G5maj7             D
You make me laugh you make me cry you make me forget myself

[Verse]
          D
Back when down on my luck
A/C#
kept me up for days
          G
You were there with the right words
   A
to help me crawl out of the maze
          D
When I’d almost convinced myself
      A/C#
I was hipper than thou
    G
You stepped up with a warning shot
A
fired sweet and low across the bow
        D
And you don’t walk on water
          A/C#
and your sarcasm stings
        G
But the way you move through this old world
     A
sure makes a case for angel wings
          D
And I was half way to the bottom
         A/C#
when you threw me that line
         G
And I’ll quote you now verbatim
         A
Get your head out of your own behind

[Chorus]
         D                 Bm
It ain't over yet what you wanna bet
         Em                    A
one more cigarette ain't gonna send you to the grave
         D                    Bm
It ain't over yet I seen your new girlfriend
                  Em                  A
thinks you’re the living end big old sparkle in her eye
         D
It ain't over yet
