I'm Not Ready Yet

Written by Tom T. Hall

	  		
(C) I've always said that some- (F) -day I was gonna (C) leave you, 
Some April when (D7) all the land is (G7) wet, 
Some (C) spring, summer (F) fall, Lord or maybe (C) winter, 
I'll leave someday but (G7) I'm not ready (C) yet. 
 
First chorus: 
(C)I know I(F) should-a left, the day I knew your love was (C)dieing, 
But I passed up every (D7) date that I ever (G7) set, 
But I (F) know I'll leave when my heart tells me it's (C) ready, 
But I'm still around, 'cause (G7) I'm not ready (C) yet. 
 
TALK THIS VERSE, INSTRUMENTS VAMP COMBINATION OF VERSE AND CHORUS, 
CHORDS WON'T MATCH WITH EITHER ONE AND WON'T BE IN TIME WITH TALK! 
 
You know I must have left you a hundred times, 
but you don't know that, 'cause I was afraid I'd be ashamed that 
you'd laugh when you found out just how far I'd get, 
But you didn't and you don't, I know you ain't gonna ever, 
And some day I'll go, but I'm not ready yet. 
 
Second chorus: 
(C)I know I (F)should of left, the day I knew your love was (C)dieing, 
But I passed up ever (D7) date this ole boy ever (G7) set, 
But I (F) know I'll leave when my heart says George, we're (C) ready, 
But I'm still around, 'cause (G7) I'm not ready (C) yet. 
 
Tag: I'm still around, 'cause (G7) I'm not ready (C) yet.
