[Verse]
Gm Fm7
Our conversation was short and sweet
Gm Fm7
It nearly swept me off-a my feet.
D# G#
And I'm back in the rain, oh
D# G#
And you are on dry land,
Fm7
You made it there somehow
Gm7 Fm7 A#7/D D# A#/D
You're a big girl now.
[Verse]
Gm Fm7
Bird on the horizon, sittin' on fence
Gm Fm7
He's singin' his song for me at his own expense
D# G#
And I'm just like that bird, oh,
D# G#
Singin' just for you
Fm7
I hope that you can hear,
Gm7 Fm7 A#7/D D# A#/D
Hear me singin' through these tears.
[Verse]
Gm Fm7
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast
Gm Fm7
Oh, but what a shame that all we've shared can't last.
D# G#
I can change, I swear, oh
D# G#
See what you can do
Fm7
I can make it through,
Gm7 Fm7 A#7/D D# A#/D
You can make it too.
[Verse]
Gm Fm7
Love is so simple, to quote a phrase,
Gm Fm7
You've known it all the time, I'm learnin' it these days .
D# G#
Oh, I know where I can find you, oh,
D# G#
In somebody's room.
Fm7
It's a price I have to pay
Gm7 Fm7 A#7/D D# A#/D
You're a big girl all the way.
[Verse]
Gm Fm7
F change in the weather is known to be extreme
Gm Fm7
But what's the sense in changing horses in midstream?
D# G#
I'm going out of my mind, oh
D# G#
With a pain that stops and starts,
Fm7
Like a corkscrew to my heart
Gm7 Fm7 A#7/D D# A#/D
Ever since we've been apart.
