[Verse]
Bm Am7
Our conversation was short and sweet
Bm Am7
It nearly swept me off-a my feet.
G C
And I'm back in the rain, oh
G C
And you are on dry land,
Am7
You made it there somehow
Bm7 Am7 D7/F# G D/F#
You're a big girl now.
[Verse]
Bm Am7
Bird on the horizon, sittin' on fence
Bm Am7
He's singin' his song for me at his own expense
G C
And I'm just like that bird, oh,
G C
Singin' just for you
Am7
I hope that you can hear,
Bm7 Am7 D7/F# G D/F#
Hear me singin' through these tears.
[Verse]
Bm Am7
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast
Bm Am7
Oh, but what a shame that all we've shared can't last.
G C
I can change, I swear, oh
G C
See what you can do
Am7
I can make it through,
Bm7 Am7 D7/F# G D/F#
You can make it too.
[Verse]
Bm Am7
Love is so simple, to quote a phrase,
Bm Am7
You've known it all the time, I'm learnin' it these days .
G C
Oh, I know where I can find you, oh,
G C
In somebody's room.
Am7
It's a price I have to pay
Bm7 Am7 D7/F# G D/F#
You're a big girl all the way.
[Verse]
Bm Am7
A change in the weather is known to be extreme
Bm Am7
But what's the sense in changing horses in midstream?
G C
I'm going out of my mind, oh
G C
With a pain that stops and starts,
Am7
Like a corkscrew to my heart
Bm7 Am7 D7/F# G D/F#
Ever since we've been apart.
