_ _ You know the years go by and your voice gets lower and all things can change so fast
Still nothing can set off your heartbeat is when you return yourself to your past
_ _ Yeah, [Em] she's acting happy

[G] And me I'm [D] flying in my taxi

_ [D] _ _ [Am] _ [Bm] Got into [Am] town a little [D] early
_ [Am] _ [D] Had eight hours to [Am] kill before the [D] show
_ First I thought about [Am] heading up [A] north of the bay [C] then I knew [D] where I had to go.
[Am] I
[D] _ _ _ _
Thought about taking a limousine
_ _ Or at least a fancy car
_ But I ended up taking a taxi
_ Cuz that's [A#] how I got [D] this far _ _ _ _
It [G] was ten years ago and in [Em] the front seat [D] driving the stone and feeling [Bm] no pain _
_ [G] Now here I am straight [D] and sitting in the back [C] hitting [A#] 16 [D] Parkside Lane _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ [A#] _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ [E] The driveway [Bm] was the [E] same as I [Bm] remember
[E] And it butler came and answered [E] the door
[Bm] He just shook his head when I [E] asked for her
Said [D] she doesn't [Am] live here anymore
[E] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ [Am] _ _ [E] _ _ _ Friday offer [Bm] to give me the address
[Bm] They [E] were forwarded our letters to I just took it and returned to the cabin
Said I [D] got one [A] more pair [E] for you
_ _ [D] _
_ [Am] _ _ [E] _ _ So we roll back into [G] the city
_ Up [A] to a five-story old [C] brownstone.
I [D] rang the bell it had her name [E] on the mailbox
_ [D] The buzzer [A] said [E] somebody's home
_ _ [D] _
_ [Am] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ And the look on her face [G] as she opened the door was [A] like an old joke told [C] by a friend
It had [D] taken her ten more years, but she [E] found a smile
[D] And I watched [Am] the car to [E] start to bang
_ _ _ _ And [A] she said how are [F#m] you Harry?
[C#] Have [E] we played the scene before?
_ [E] _ [A] I?
Said it's so good to [E] see you soon
_ [D] Had to play it [Am] out just [E] once more
_ _ [D]
Play it [Am] out just [E] once more _ _ _
_ [Bm] _ _ [E] _ _ [Bm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ She said I've heard you flying high on my radio
[Bm] I [E] said it's not all it seems
That's where she laughed that [F#] she said it's better [Bm] sometimes when [D] you don't get [Am] to touch your [E] dreams
_ _ _ [C] _ _ [Am] _ _ [E] _
_ [B] _ _ [C] _ _ [Am] _ _ [E] _
_ That's [A] when I asked her where [F#m] was that actress
_ [E] She said that was somebody else
When [A] I asked her why she [E] looked so happy now.
She [D] said I
Finally like myself
_ [E] At last I like myself _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G#m] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G#] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _
_ [C#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#m] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Am] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ So we talked all through that afternoon _
Talking about a way with me
_ [G#m]
We [E] talked of the tiny _ difference [C#]
between
And start to begin _
[F#m] We talk is talking tells you things like what you [F#] really are thinking about
_ _ [Am] _
Sometimes you can't find what you [E] feeling till all their words run _ _ out
_ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ So [E] I
Asked her to come to the concert
_ [E] She said no [Bm] I work at night.
I said [E] we got to [Bm] damn good at [E] leaving soon
She [D] said [A] Harry [E] you're right
_ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [A] Don't ask me if I [F#m] made love to her or [E] which one of us started to cry
[A] _ Don't ask me why she wouldn't [E] take the money that I left [D] if I had [A] said at all [E] I'd lie
_ _ [D] _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
_ So I thought about her as I sang that night and about the circle keeps rolling around
_ [Am] And about [D] I act as I'm facing the footlights and how [C] she's flying with [A#] both feet on [D] the ground
_ _ _ _ Yes, [G] I guess it's a sequel to [E] our [Em] story from [D] our journey between heaven [Bm] and hell
[D] _ [G] with half the time thinking of [D] what might have
_ _ [C]
Have [A#] thinking [D] just as well _ _
