Lyrics / Chord Sections
=======================
(Short Verse Pattern 1)
 AA+A6A/G
think you have somebody waiting outside in the rain to take you away
 DE7sus4
You got places to go, you got people to see still I'm gonna miss you
 E7
   but anyway...
(Long Verse Pattern 2)
 AA/G#A/F#A/EDD/C#D/BD/A
wish you good spaces in the far away places you go   
 EE/DE/C#E/BAA/G#A/F#A/E
 If it rains or it snows may you be safe and warm and never grow old
 DE7sus4E7AA/GD/F#D/F
And if you need someone who loves you, you know I will always be there 
 AD/AEAE7sus4E7
I'll do it although I'm not supposed to care  
(Long Verse Pattern 2)
 AA/G#A/F#A/EDD/C#D/BD/A
I'll give you the keys to my flying machine if you'd like   
 EE/DE/C#E/BAA/G#A/F#A/E
 I will show you the light and when you call I'm gonna come to you 
 DE7sus4E7AA/GD/F#D/F
                                       And when you find someone who loves you, I'll know you would treat me the same
 AD/AEA
Just lie there, you're not supposed to care
(Short Verse Pattern 1)
 AA+A6A/G
think you have somebody waiting outside in the rain to take you away.
 DE7sus4
That's some kind of a game still I'm glad it came down to the final round
 E7
   but anyway...
(Last Verse Pattern 3)
 DE7sus4E7AA/GD/F#D/F
If you think you need someone who needs you, you know I will always be there 
 AD/AEAA/G#D/F#D/F
I'll do it although I'm not supposed to care   
 AD/AEA
I'll do it although I'm not supposed to care
