Verse:
Dm7 Bbadd9 C 			Dm7 Bbadd9 C
The smell of your skin lingers on me now
Dm7 Bbadd9 C			Dm7 Bbadd9 C
You're probably on your flight back to your home town
Dm7 Bbadd9 C			Dm7 Bbadd9 C
I need some shelter of my own protection baby
Dm7 Bbadd9 C			Dm7 Bbadd9 C - hold -
To be with myself and center, clarity
Peace, Serenity

Chorus:
Bb         F                    C
   I hope you know, I hope you know
     C                       
   That this has nothing to do with you
Bb         F                    C
   It's personal, myself and I
     Dm                     
   We've got some straightenin' out to do
Bb             F                                C
   And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
     Dm                     
   But I've got to get a move on with my life
Bb         F                    C
   It's time to be a big girl now
    C                        
   And big girls don't cry
Dm7 Bbadd9 C 			Dm7 Bbadd9 C
   Don't cry, Don’t cry, Don’t cry...

Verse:
Dm7 Bbadd9 C 			Dm7 Bbadd9 C
The path that I'm walking, I must go alone
Dm7 Bbadd9 C 			Dm7 Bbadd9 C
I must take the baby steps 'til I'm full grown, full grown
Dm7 Bbadd9 C 			Dm7 Bbadd9 C
Fairytales don't always have a happy ending, do they?
Dm7 Bbadd9 C 			Dm7 Bbadd9 C - hold it -
And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay

Chorus:
Bb         F                    C
   I hope you know, I hope you know
     C                       
   That this has nothing to do with you
Bb         F                    C
   It's personal, myself and I
     Dm                     
   We've got some straightenin' out to do
Bb             F                                C
   And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
     Dm                     
   But I've got to get a move on with my life
Bb         F                    C
   It's time to be a big girl now
    C                        
   And big girls don't cry
   
Verse:
Dm7 Bbadd9 C 			Dm7 Bbadd9 C
Like the little school mate in the school yard
Dm7 Bbadd9 C 			Dm7 Bbadd9 C 
We'll play jacks and uno cards
Dm7 Bbadd9 C 			Dm7 Bbadd9 C 
I'll be your best friend and you'll be my Valentine
Dm7 Bbadd9 C 			Dm7 Bbadd9 C 
Yes you can hold my hand if you want to
Dm7 Bbadd9 C 			Dm7 Bbadd9 C 
'Cause I want to hold yours too
Dm7 Bbadd9 C 			Dm7 Bbadd9 C 
We'll be playmates and lovers and share our secret worlds

Bridge:
  A                          Dm  
But it's time for me to go home
  A                      Bb  
It's getting late, dark outside
  A                    
I need to be with myself and center, clarity
Peace, Serenity

Chorus:
Bb         F                    C
   I hope you know, I hope you know
     C                       
   That this has nothing to do with you
Bb         F                    C
   It's personal, myself and I
     Dm                     
   We've got some straightenin' out to do
Bb             F                                C
   And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
     Dm                     
   But I've got to get a move on with my life
Bb         F                    C
   It's time to be a big girl now
    C                        
   And big girls don't cry
