Come and talk of all the things we did today

and I know that it’s time you must leave
Chorus:

But darling be home soon
Csus4 C G
I couldn’t bear to wait an extra minute if you dawdled

My darling be home soon

It’s not just these few hours but I’ve been waiting since I toddled
C C/B Am D7 G
For the great relief of having you to talk to
Verse 2:
G C G
And now a quarter of my life is almost passed
C G
I think I’ve come to see myself at last

was the time that I spent without you
C C/B Am Am/G D7
And I feel myself in bloom

Go and beat your crazy head against the sky

It’s ok to shoot the moon
