[Verse 1]

G/B C D                  G/B   C D        
The smell of your skin lingers   on me now
G/B CD                            G/B     C    D   
Your probably on your flight back to your home town
G/B C  D                  G/B    C       D   
I need some shelter of my own protection baby
G/B   C      D                            G/B  C (hold)
To be with myself and center,       clarity, peace, serenity.

[Chorus]
C            G                D 
I hope you know, I hope you know
D                                   
That this has nothing to do with you
C           G             D
It's personal, Myself and I
               Em                   C 
We've got some straightenin' out to do
              G                                  D       
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket.
                     Em                  
But Ive got to get a move on with my life
C           G             D (hold)
Its time to be a big girl now and big girls don't cry.
G/B C D    G/B   C    D        
Don't cry, Don't cry, Don't cry

[Verse 2]

G/B C D                   G/B  C       D    
The path that I'm walking I    must go alone
G/B C  D                        G/B C        D            
I must take the baby steps 'til I'm full grown, full grown
G/B CD                  G/B    C     D               
Fairytales don't always have a happy ending, do they?
G/B   C      D                      G/B  C (hold)
And I foresee the dark ahead    if I stay

[Chorus]
C            G                D 
I hope you know, I hope you know
D                                   
That this has nothing to do with you
C           G             D
It's personal, Myself and I
               Em                   C 
We've got some straightenin' out to do
              G                                  D       
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket.
                     Em                  
But Ive got to get a move on with my life
C           G             D (hold)
Its time to be a big girl now and big girls don't cry.

[Bridge]

G                     D/F#                   
Like the little schoolmate in the school yard
C                             
We'll play jacks and uno cards
G                D/F#               C                 
I'll be your best friend and you'll be mine, Valentine
G            D/F#                C      
Yes, you can hold my hand if you want to
C                              
'Cause I want to hold yours too
G            D/F#                 C                      
We'll be playmates and lovers and share our secret worlds
D/F#     G                 C   
But it's time for me to go home
             D/F#          G   
It's getting late, dark outside
          C                                                 
I need to be with myself and center clarity, peace, serenity

[Chorus]
C            G                D 
I hope you know, I hope you know
D                                   
That this has nothing to do with you
C           G             D
It's personal, Myself and I
               Em                   C 
We've got some straightenin' out to do
              G                                  D       
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket.
                     Em                  
But Ive got to get a move on with my life
C           G             D (hold)
Its time to be a big girl now and big girls don't cry.
G/B C D G/BC     D               
Don't cry, Don't cry,   Don't cry
G/B   C      D
G/B   C      D
G/B   C      D
