Not Ready To Make Nice Tab

by Dixie Chicks


To play the first bass note in the song, you'll need to be in drop D tuning and then 
the top 3 strings before strumming an open D5 chord (hammering a high "F" on the "E" string 
make it a D minor)

               
Forgive, sounds good
                       
Forget, I’m not sure I could
                 
They say time heals everything
               
But I’m still waiting
                
I’m through with doubt
                                 
There’s nothing left for me to figure out
            
I’ve paid a price
                
And I’ll keep paying

        
I’m not ready to make nice
        
I’m not ready to back down
          
I’m still mad as hell and
                        
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
         
It’s too late to make it right
           
I probably wouldn’t if I could
           
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
                         
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should
I know you said
Can’t you just get over it
It turned my whole world around
And I kind of like it
I made my bed and I sleep like a baby
With no regrets and I don’t mind sayin’
It’s a sad sad story when a mother will teach her
Daughter that she ought to hate a perfect stranger
And how in the world can the words that I said
Send somebody so over the edge
That they’d write me a letter
Sayin’ that I better shut up and sing
Or my life will be over

              
I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should
I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should
Forgive, sounds good
Forget, I’m not sure I could
They say time heals everything
But I’m still waiting
