Paul Kelly (Australia) - Love never runs on time

^DI pulled out of the s^Guburbs by ^Dsunset. ^GRain was falling, ^Dlooked like it ^Awould for a while.

^DI had a radio, ^Gsix-pack and some ciga^Drettes. ^GThe radio died a^Dfter the first hun^Adred miles.

^GI sang all the w^Day to the border ^GAnd guess who star^Ared in every rhyme.

^DAh you know and^G I know that love^A never runs on time. D G D G D A

^DI followed that o^Gld river 'til the ^Dmorning. ^GI stopped, I don^D't remember the ^Aname of the town.

^DBut the co^Glour of the coff^Dee was a warning, ^GIt was the co^Dlour of the river b^Aut not nearly as brown.

^G The waitress p^Doured me another, I^G guess she was th^Ae mind-reading kind

^DYou know and^G I know that love^A never runs on t^Dime.

^BmYou're lost in the ^Gtraffic. ^AI’ve been asking around, ^Dbut you haven't been seen.

^BmI never thought we were p^Gerfect. ^AOh but darling - what we could have been!

^DThe rain came an^Gd went all the ^Dnext day. ^GI pulled over ^Dsometime for a s^Aleep on the side.

^DThen I gunned it^G back out on the hi^Dghway, ^GHit a big pot-hole^D and the radio came al^Aive.

^GI never heard a love ^Dsong yet ^GThat I could call y^Aours and mine

^D'Cause you know and I^G know that lov^Ae never runs on^D time.

^GI never heard a love son^Dg yet ^GThat I could call yours an^Ad mine.

^D'Cause you know and I kno^Gw that love never runs on t^Aime. ^D
