Jim Croce – Lover’s Cross Chords

Guess that it was bound to happen
Was just a matter of time
But now I’ve come to my decision
And it’s one of the painful kind
‘Cuz now it seems that you wanted a martyr
Just a regular guy wouldn’t do
‘Cuz, baby, I can’t hang upon no lover’s cross
for you

Yes, I really got to hand it to you
‘Cuz girl, you really tried
But for every time that we spent laughing
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
‘Cuz baby, I can’t hang upon no lover’s cross for you

‘Cuz 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
‘Cuz 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

‘Cuz 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
‘Cuz 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
