Your probably on your flight back to your home town

To be with myself instead of calamity

[Chorus]
C9               Em7            D
I hope you know, I hope you know
D
That this has nothing to do with you
C9               Em7            D
It's personal, Myself and I
Am
We've got some straightenin' out to do
Em7           G                                         D
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
                    Em7
But I've got to get a move on with my life
C9              G             D (let it ring)
It's time to be a big girl now
(Mute)
And big girls don't cry

The path that I'm walking
I must go alone
I must take the baby steps until I'm full grown
Fairytales don't always have a happy ending, do they
And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay

[Chorus]
C9               Em7            D
I hope you know, I hope you know
D
That this has nothing to do with you

Em7           G                                         D
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
                    Em7
But I've got to get a move on with my life
C9              G             D (let it ring)
It's time to be a big girl now

[Verse 3]
C9              Em7                          G
Like the little schoolmate in the school yard
G
We'll play jacks and uno cards
C9           Em7             G
I'll be your best friend and you'll be mine
G
Valentine
C9           Em7                        G
Yes, you can hold my hand if you want to
G                              C9
'Cause I want to hold yours too
         Em7                  G
We'll be playmates and lovers and share our secret worlds
Am        Em7            D
But it's time for me to go home
Am                 Em7
It's getting late, dark outside
D        Em7                        C9
I need to be with myself instead of calamity
D
Peace, Serenity

[Chorus]
C9               Em7            D

It's personal, Myself and I
Am
We've got some straightenin' out to do
Em7           G                                         D
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
                    Em7
But I've got to get a move on with my life
C9              G             D (let it ring)
It's time to be a big girl now
(Mute)
