I pulled out of the suburbs by sunset.
G D A
Rain was falling, looked like it would for a while.
D G D
I had a radio, six-pack and some cigarettes.
G D A
The radio died after the first hundred miles.
G D
I sang all the way to the border
G A
And guess who starred in every rhyme.
D G A
Ah you know and I know that love never runs on time.

I followed that old river 'til the morning.
G D A
I stopped, I don't remember the name of the town.
D G D
But the colour of the coffee was a warning,
G D A
It was the colour of the river but not nearly as brown.
G D
The waitress poured me another,
G A
I guess she was the mind-reading kind
D G A D
You know and I know that love never runs on time.
Bm G
You're lost in the traffic.
A D
I’ve been asking around, but you haven't been seen.
Bm G
I never thought we were perfect.
A
Oh but darling - what we could have been!

The rain came and went all the next day.
G D A
I pulled over sometime for a sleep on the side.
D G D
Then I gunned it back out on the highway,
G D A
Hit a big pot-hole and the radio came alive.
G D
I never heard a love song yet
G A
That I could call yours and mine
D G A D
'Cause you know and I know that love never runs on time.
