[Verse]
F#m Em7
Our conversation was short and sweet
F#m Em7
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,
Em7
You made it there somehow
F#m7 Em7 A7/C# D A/C#
You're a big girl now.
[Verse]
F#m Em7
Bird on the horizon, sittin' on fence
F#m Em7
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
Em7
I hope that you can hear,
F#m7 Em7 A7/C# D A/C#
Hear me singin' through these tears.
[Verse]
F#m Em7
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast
F#m Em7
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
Em7
I can make it through,
F#m7 Em7 A7/C# D A/C#
You can make it too.
[Verse]
F#m Em7
Love is so simple, to quote a phrase,
F#m Em7
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.
Em7
It's a price I have to pay
F#m7 Em7 A7/C# D A/C#
You're a big girl all the way.
[Verse]
F#m Em7
E change in the weather is known to be extreme
F#m Em7
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,
Em7
Like a corkscrew to my heart
F#m7 Em7 A7/C# D A/C#
Ever since we've been apart.
