[Verse]
Cm A#m7
Our conversation was short and sweet
Cm A#m7
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,
A#m7
You made it there somehow
Cm7 A#m7 D#7/G G# D#/G
You're a big girl now.
[Verse]
Cm A#m7
Bird on the horizon, sittin' on fence
Cm A#m7
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
A#m7
I hope that you can hear,
Cm7 A#m7 D#7/G G# D#/G
Hear me singin' through these tears.
[Verse]
Cm A#m7
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast
Cm A#m7
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
A#m7
I can make it through,
Cm7 A#m7 D#7/G G# D#/G
You can make it too.
[Verse]
Cm A#m7
Love is so simple, to quote a phrase,
Cm A#m7
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.
A#m7
It's a price I have to pay
Cm7 A#m7 D#7/G G# D#/G
You're a big girl all the way.
[Verse]
Cm A#m7
A# change in the weather is known to be extreme
Cm A#m7
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,
A#m7
Like a corkscrew to my heart
Cm7 A#m7 D#7/G G# D#/G
Ever since we've been apart.
