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


[Chorus]

                      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


[Chorus]

            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


[Chorus]

              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
