[Verse]
F#m F#m7 E
The smell of your skin lingers on me now
F#m F#m7 E
You're probably on your flight back to your hometown
A F#m E F#m7
I need some shelter of my own protection, baby
F#m F#m7 E
To be with myself and center, clarity
G(let ring)
Peace, serenity
[Chorus]
D F#m7 E
I hope you know, I hope you know
E
That this has nothing to do with you
D F#m7 E
It's personal, Myself and I
Bm
We've got some straightenin' out to do
A Bm
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
F#m7 D
But I've got to get a move on with my life
A E (let it ring)
It's time to be a big girl now
(No chord)
And big girls don't cry

The path that I'm walking, I must go alone

Fairy tales don't always have a happy ending, do they?

And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay
