[Verse]
Em Em7 D
The smell of your skin lingers on me now
Em Em7 D
You're probably on your flight back to your hometown
G Em D Em7
I need some shelter of my own protection, baby
Em Em7 D
To be with myself and center, clarity
G(let ring)
Peace, serenity
[Chorus]
C Em7 D
I hope you know, I hope you know
D
That this has nothing to do with you
C Em7 D
It's personal, Myself and I
Am
We've got some straightenin' out to do
G Am
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
Em7 C
But I've got to get a move on with my life
G D (let it ring)
It's time to be a big girl now
(No chord)
And big girls don't cry
[Instrumental]

The path that I'm walking, I must go alone
Em Em7 Em D

Fairy tales don't always have a happy ending, do they?
Em Em7 D
And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay
