Lyrics

Well, she’s (Em)walk in’

through the clouds

with a (Am)cir cus mind

that’s run ning wild.

(Bm)But ter flies and ze bras and (Bb)moon beams

and, uh, (C)fair y tales:

that’s all she ev er thinks a bout.

Rid ing with the (D)wind.

When I’m (Em)sad,

she comes to me

with a (Am)thou sand smiles;

she gives to me free.

It’s al right she says.

(Bb)It’s al right.

Take (C)an y thing you want from me,

an y thing.

(D)An y thing.

(Em)walk in’

through the clouds

with a (Am)cir cus mind

that’s run ning wild.

(Bm)But ter flies and ze bras and (Bb)moon beams

and, uh, (C)fair y tales:

that’s all she ev er thinks a bout.

Rid ing with the (D)wind.

When I’m (Em)sad,

she comes to me

with a (Am)thou sand smiles;

she gives to me free.

It’s al right she says.

(Bb)It’s al right.

Take (C)an y thing you want from me,

an y thing.

(D)An y thing.
