[Verse]
Fm D#m7
Our conversation was short and sweet
Fm D#m7
It nearly swept me off-a my feet.
C# F#
And I'm back in the rain, oh
C# F#
And you are on dry land,
D#m7
You made it there somehow
Fm7 D#m7 G#7/C C# G#/C
You're a big girl now.
[Verse]
Fm D#m7
Bird on the horizon, sittin' on fence
Fm D#m7
He's singin' his song for me at his own expense
C# F#
And I'm just like that bird, oh,
C# F#
Singin' just for you
D#m7
I hope that you can hear,
Fm7 D#m7 G#7/C C# G#/C
Hear me singin' through these tears.
[Verse]
Fm D#m7
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast
Fm D#m7
Oh, but what a shame that all we've shared can't last.
C# F#
I can change, I swear, oh
C# F#
See what you can do
D#m7
I can make it through,
Fm7 D#m7 G#7/C C# G#/C
You can make it too.
[Verse]
Fm D#m7
Love is so simple, to quote a phrase,
Fm D#m7
You've known it all the time, I'm learnin' it these days .
C# F#
Oh, I know where I can find you, oh,
C# F#
In somebody's room.
D#m7
It's a price I have to pay
Fm7 D#m7 G#7/C C# G#/C
You're a big girl all the way.
[Verse]
Fm D#m7
D# change in the weather is known to be extreme
Fm D#m7
But what's the sense in changing horses in midstream?
C# F#
I'm going out of my mind, oh
C# F#
With a pain that stops and starts,
D#m7
Like a corkscrew to my heart
Fm7 D#m7 G#7/C C# G#/C
Ever since we've been apart.
