Lover’s Cross - Jim Croce

       C          Am     Dm       G       C          Am        Dm    G    
Well I guess that it was bound to happen, was just a matter of time

         C       Am     Dm   G        C                  Am    
Now I’ve come to my decision and it’s one of the painful kind

       F              G        Am             F       C            Dm  G7        
Now it seems that you wanted a martyr, just a regular guy wouldn’t do

      C       Am      Dm           G7        C 
Baby, I can’t hang upon no lover’s cross for you

Hey, I’ve really got to hand it to you, girl, you really tried
But for every time that we spent laughing there were two times that I cried
You were trying to make me your martyr, that’s one thing I just couldn’t do
Cause baby I can’t hang upon no Lover’s Cross for you

C7      F          G         Am   Em     F          C        Dm    G  
  Cause tables are meant for turning and people are bound to change

F           G         Am  Em           F          C           
Bridges are meant for burning when the people and mem’ries 

     Dm              G      G7 
they join aren’t the same

But I hope that you can find another who can take what I could not
He’ll have to be a super guy; or maybe a super God
cause I never was much of a martyr before and I ain’t gonna start nothing new
Baby I can’t hang upon no Lover’s Cross for you
