Tuning: Open D + capo 2nd fret (= Open E)
The song is played in Open E tuning. This means you have to tune up the A
and the D string up one note and the G string up one semi tone. I don't
like tuning strings up that much, as I sometimes tend to break strings.
I'd suggest to tune strings down, using Open D, and then using a capo on
the 2nd fret to bring it back to Open E:
tuning: Open D (D-A-D-F#-A D)
capo: 2nd fret (sounds: E-B E-G#-B E = Open E)
key: E
I included voicings for standard tuning, too, if you don't want to retune.

Intro
Verse 1
Our conversation
was short and sweet
It nearly swept me
off-a my feet
And I&rs
quo;m back in the rain,
mmh, mmh
And you are on dry
land, mmh,
mmh
You made it there some
how
You&rsquo
;re a big
girl
now
Verse 2
Bird on the horizon,
sittin’ on a fence
He’s singin’ his
song for me at his own expense
And I&rs
quo;m just like that bird
, ah, ah
Singin’ jus
t for you,
mmh, mmh
I hope that you can
hear
Hear me
singin’ through
these
tears
Verse 3
Love is so simple
, to quote a phrase
You’ve known it all the
time, I’m learnin’ it these days
Oh, I
know where I can find you, oh,
oh
In somebody&rs
quo;s room,
mmh, mmh
It’s a price I ha
ve to pay
You&rsquo
;re a big girl al
l the
way
Verse 4
Time is a jet plane,
it moves too fast
Oh, but what a shame if
all we’ve shared can’t last
I can
change, I swear, mmh,
mmh
See what you can
do, mmh,
mmh
I can make it
through
You can make it
too
Verse 5
A change in the weather
can be extreme
But it ain’t like cha
nging horses in midstream
I’m
going out of my mind,
mmh, mmh
With a pain that stops and
starts, ah,
ah
Like a corkscrew to my
heart
Ever
since we’ve
been a
part
