I've got to get to you first
            F
Before they do
                        G
It's just a question of time
                      F
Before they lay their hands on you
                           Cmi
And make you just like the rest
                       G#   D#
I've got to get to you first
                        Gmi F Gmi F
It's just a question of time

                     G
Well now you're only fifteen
             F
And you look good
                       G
I'll take you under my wing
    F
Somebody should
                   Cmi
They've persuasive ways
                             G# D#
And you'll believe what they say
                        Cmi
It's just a question of time
     G#
It's running out for you
   Cmi
It won't be long
Gmi
Until you'll do
G#                B
Exactly what they want you to

Gmi F Gmi F

I can see them now
Hanging around
To mess you up
To strip you down
And have their fun
With my little one

It's just a question of time
It's running out for you
It won't be long
Until you'll do
Exactly what they want you to
It won't be long
Until you'll do
Exactly what they want you to

Sometimes I don't blame them
For wanting you
You look good
And they need something to do
Until I look at you
And then I condemn them
I know my kind
What goes on in our minds

                        Gmi
It's just a question of time
             F
It should be better
                        Gmi
It's just a question of time
             F
It should be better with you
It's just a question of time
