No Slack

Joe Bonamassa


Somebody told me that you had changed,
Since the day my life has become estranged.
Well that's ok, you just put on that face,
But in your heart I know of another place.

So here we are, now we're just worlds apart,
But were we any closer at the start?
Something so alone, you want somebody,
But you're still on your own.

(Oh baby) Now that the feeling's gone,
I believe that I've done no wrong.
'Cuz I've tried hard to get you back baby,
But you just wouldn't cut me no slack.

Now that it's gone, now that we've walked away,
Now that we've both started a brand new day.
I'm lookin' back - I'm lookin' at your face,
I'm lookin' and all I see is empty space.

So here we are, now we're just worlds apart,
But were we any closer at the start?
Something so alone, you want somebody,
But you're still on your own.

Oh baby, now that the feeling's gone,
I believe that I've done no wrong.
'Cuz I've tried hard to get you back baby,
But you just wouldn't cut me no slack.

But I gotsta' have ya,
Now that I know the cost baby.
Something's gonna change my mind,
But I don't have the luxury of time no more.
Oh, no more time baby...

(Short Lead Break) 

Now that the feeling's gone,
I believe that I've done no wrong.
'Cuz I've tried hard to get you back baby,
But you just wouldn't cut me no slack.

Now that the feeling's gone,
I believe that I've done no wrong.
'Cuz I've tried hard to get you back baby,
But you just wouldn't cut me no slack.

Oh no…
Just wouldn't cut me no slack now…
Now that the feeling's gone…
Oh no more time baby…
Yeah now that the feeling's gone…
