Lover's Cross by Jim Croce
Lover's Cross
Capo:no capo
[Verse 1]
C Am Dm G7 C Am Dm G7
Guess that it was bound to happen; was just a matter of time
C Am Dm C C/B Am
But now I've come to my decision, And it's a-one of the painful kind
Am/G F G Am Am/G
'Cause now it seems that you wanted a martyr,
F C/E Dm G7
Just a regular guy wouldn't do
C C/B Am Dm G7 C C7
But baby, I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you.
[Verse 2]
C Am Dm G7 C Am Dm G7
Yes I really got to hand it to you, 'cause girl, you really tried
C Am Dm G7
But for every time that we spent laughin'
C C/B Am Am/G
There were two times that I cried.
F G Am Am/G
And you were tryin' to make me your martyr
F C Dm G7
And that's the one thing I just couldn't do
C C/B Am Dm G7 C C7
'Cause baby, I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you.
[Chorus]
F G Am Em
'Cause tables are meant for turnin',
F C Dm G7
And people are bound to change
F G Am Em
And bridges are meant for burnin',
F C Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
When the people and memories they join aren't the same
[Verse 3]
C Am Dm G7 C Am Dm G7
So I'll hope that you can find another who can take what I could not
C Am Dm G7 C C/B Am Am/G
He'll have to be a super guy or maybe a super god
F G Am Am/G
'Cause I never was much of a martyr before
F C/E Dm G7
And I ain't 'bout to start nothin' new
C C/B Am Dm G7 C
And baby, I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you.

I guess that it was bound to happen
Was just a matter of time
Now I've come to my decision
And it's a one of the painful kind
'Cause now it seems that you wanted a martyr
Just a regular guy wouldn't do
But baby, I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you
You really gotta hand it to ya
'Cause girl you really tried
But for every time that we spent laughin'
There were two times that I cried
And you were tryin' to make me your martyr
And that's the one thing I just couldn't do
'Cause baby, I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you
'Cause tables are meant for turnin'
And people are bound to change
And bridges are meant for burnin'
When the people and memories
They join aren't the same
Still 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 'bout to start nothin' new
And baby, I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you
'Cause tables are meant for turnin'
And people are bound to change
And bridges are meant for burnin'
When the people and memories
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 'bout to start nothin' new
And baby, I can't hang upon no lover's cross for you
