You Can’t Hurry Love

You Can’t Hurry Love

The Supremes (#1 in 1966), Phil Collins (#10 in 1982), The Dixie Chicks

Key of F (male), Bb (female)

I need love, love, too ease my mind
And I need to find time, someone to call mine;
My mama said

    You can't hurry love
    No, you'll just have to wait
    She said love don't come easy
    But it's a game of give and take
    You can't hurry love
    No, you'll just have to wait
    Just trust in a good time
    No matter how long it takes

How many heartaches must I stand
Before I find the love to let me live again
Right now the only thing that keeps me hanging on
When I feel my strength, ooh, it's almost gone
I remember mama said    Chorus

No, I cant bear to live my life alone
I grow impatient for a love to call my own
But when I feel that I, I can't go on
Well these precious words keep me hanging on
I remember mama said   Chorus

Now love, love don't come easy
But I keep on waiting
Anticipating for that soft voice
To talk to me at night
For some tender arms hold me tight
I keep waiting
Ooh, till that day
But it ain't easy (Love don't come easy)
No, you know it ain't easy, My mama said    Chorus
