VERSE:
G         D7          A 
Waving my arms in the air
G        D7           A 
Love, my love, got no care
C  A     C   A    
No care, no, no, 


VERSE: 
G           D7          A 
Pressing my feet to the ground
G        D7              A
Stand up right where you stand
C       A       C           A         
Call to you and what do you do?


VERSE:
G      D7        A
Laying back in a chair
G        D7          A
She's so high on the air
She's so high on the air
C        A     C        A         
Half and half, half and half


VERSE:
G               D7    A
All you have to do to call, is
C        A     C       A
Hold her hand, stand a while and then 
C               A    G
Smile and we'll understand

D7		A
Yes we do - yes, yes we do!


VERSE:
G         D7            A
Oh what a girl I've got too!
Oh what a girl I've got too!
C      A                 C          A                C        A
Slinky look she held her tie to her hair and I could see everywhere


VERSE:
G             D7       A
No-one in the land, no-one
No-one in the land, no-one.
   G        D7       A
It rains on Saturday…
G        D7          A
Cats and dogs in the hay
C      A    C    A
Stormy day, hey, hey.


VERSE:
        G                D7      A         
And you shouldn't try to be what you can't be,
And you shouldn't try to be what you can't be, 
C       A        C           A
Call to you, and what do you do

G      D7       A


CODA:
              G                        A
There will be shoulder dressing in the hall,
            G                      A
And I won’t know if you're here at all,
              G                        A
There will be wine and drinking in the yard,
               G            A
There won’t be anybody very hard,
              G                          A
There will be lots of things that we can do.
                             G
And all and more will be for you

D7                  A
Everything I knew I tried with you, but 
    F#                          E
But everything to you was never easy, 
                          A
So I went ahead around my world, 
I saw the things you do arriving by your side
I see you looking too, but I know this.
                        E
I know, I never lied to you. 
     G                     F
It’s been just like you're gone
             A       G  D
For just one day for so long!  
     F       F#      G                    D
It’s been so hard to bear when you're not there,
             E             
But though I think of you, the things you do
When I'm with you, to be with you,
To be alone...can only think:
"Why I am here? 
	     A
What’s meant to be?"
