(piano intro)
[Am] Rudy's on a [Dm]train to nowhere,
[Ddim7] Halfway [C]down the line.[G]
[Am] He don't [Dm]wanna get there,
[Fm]But he needs time.
Cm6 - D7sus4 (4x)
[Am] He ain't sop[Dm]histicated,
[Ddim7] nor well[C]-educated.[G]
[Am] After all the [Dm]hours he's wasted,
[Fm]Still he needs time...
Cm6 - D7sus4 (4x)
He needs time![Am]
He needs a time for [Amadd9]livin'
He needs time[Dm]
For someone just to [Amadd9]see him
[G] He ain't had no [C]lovin'
[F] For no reason or [Bb]rhyme
[G] And the whole world's a[C]bove him
[Gm] Well it's not as though he's [Dm]fat
No, there's more to it than [Gm]that
See he tries to play it [Dm]cool
Wouldn't be nobody's [Eb]fool
[Eb](gu[-]it[Dm]ar [-]so[Eb]lo)[-][Dm]
[Eb/C] Rudy [F7]thought,
[Dm] That all good [Gm]things,
[Cm] Comes to [F]those that [Bb]wait[Bb7][-][Bb6]

(keep hammering Bbm)
[Bbm] All through your life, all through the years
Nobo[Ab]dy loves, nobo[Bbm]dy cares
So dim the light, dark are your fears
Try as [Ab]I might, I can't hold back the [Bbm]tears
How can you live, without love, it's not fair
Someone [Ab]said give, but I just didn't [Bbm]dare, I didn't dare, I didn't dare
What good advice are you waiting to hear?
Hearing's [Ab]alright for them [Bbm]that's all there
Hearing's [Ab]alright...
You'd better
[Bbm] You'd better get con[Cm/Bb]trol of
[Bbm] You'd better show 'em [Cm/Bb]all now
[Bbm] You'd better make or [Cm/Bb]break now
[Bbm] You'd better give and [Cm/Bb]take now
[Bm] You'll have to push and [C#m/B]show them
[Bm] You'll have to find some [C#m/B]love now...
[Bm] You'd better gain con[C#m/B]trol now
