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