Verse:
Gm7 Ebadd9 F Gm7 Ebadd9 F
The smell of your skin lingers on me now
Gm7 Ebadd9 F Gm7 Ebadd9 F
You're probably on your flight back to your home town

I need some shelter of my own protection baby
Gm7 Ebadd9 F Gm7 Ebadd9 F - hold -
To be with myself and center, clarity
Peace, Serenity
Chorus:
Eb Bb F
I hope you know, I hope you know
F
That this has nothing to do with you
Eb Bb F
It's personal, myself and I
Gm
We've got some straightenin' out to do
Eb Bb F
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
Gm
But I've got to get a move on with my life
Eb Bb F
It's time to be a big girl now
F
And big girls don't cry
Gm7 Ebadd9 F Gm7 Ebadd9 F
Don't cry, Don’t cry, Don’t cry...
Verse:
Gm7 Ebadd9 F Gm7 Ebadd9 F
The path that I'm walking, I must go alone
Gm7 Ebadd9 F Gm7 Ebadd9 F
I must take the baby steps 'til I'm full grown, full grown
Gm7 Ebadd9 F Gm7 Ebadd9 F
Fairytales don't always have a happy ending, do they?
Gm7 Ebadd9 F Gm7 Ebadd9 F - hold it -
And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay

Verse:
Gm7 Ebadd9 F Gm7 Ebadd9 F
Like the little school mate in the school yard
Gm7 Ebadd9 F Gm7 Ebadd9 F
We'll play jacks and uno cards
Gm7 Ebadd9 F Gm7 Ebadd9 F
I'll be your best friend and you'll be my Valentine
Gm7 Ebadd9 F Gm7 Ebadd9 F
Yes you can hold my hand if you want to
Gm7 Ebadd9 F Gm7 Ebadd9 F
'Cause I want to hold yours too
Gm7 Ebadd9 F Gm7 Ebadd9 F
We'll be playmates and lovers and share our secret worlds
