It Takes Time

[Verse 1]
There s a man in the mountains, of east Tennessee
With three generations, making that gentleman s drink
He pours in his soul, then the corn from his land
Then he lets that old clock, do what only it can
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
We were kids when I met her, then I quit that small town
A handful of years later, shit just look at her now
Just like that whiskey, she grew strong and smooth
And old father time, he knew just what to do
[Chorus]
It takes ti-me, can t rush your way right through this life
Ti- me, no crop donât grow overnight
Ti- me, gotta put the work in to get it right
Woah oh, Lord it just takes time (ya)
[Instrumental] x2
[Verse 3]
Well a bird dropped a seed, and it bloomed in the woods
It took 200 years, to fall from where it stood
It took the hands of a maker, and the sweat from his brow
To make that tree this guitar Iâm playinâ now
[Chorus]
It takes ti-me, can t rush your way right through this life
Ti- me, no crop donât grow overnight
Ti- me, you gotta put the work in to get it right
Woah oh, Lord it just takes time
[Bridge]
Yeah-
Whoah-oh-oh time, time, ti-me (yeah)
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
It takes ti-me, can t rush your way right through this life
N.C.
Ti- me, no crop donât grow overnight
Ti- me, gotta put the work in to get it right
Woah oh, Lord it just takes time
I said whoah oh---, Lord it just takes time
[Outro] x4
