Verse
[Em] [Em7] [D]
The smell of your skin lingers on me now
[Em] [Em7] [D]
You're probably on your flight back to your hometown
[G] [Em] [D] [Em7]
I need some shelter of my own protection, baby
[Em] [Em7] [D]
To be with myself and center, clarity
[G](let ring)
Peace, serenity
Chorus
[C] [Em7] [D]
I hope you know, I hope you know
[D]
That this has nothing to do with you
[C] [Em7] [D]
It's personal, Myself and I
[Am]
We've got some straightenin' out to do
[G] [Am]
And I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket
[Em7] [C]
But I've got to get a move on with my life
[G] [D] (let it ring)
It's time to be a big girl now
(No chord)
And big girls don't cry

The path that I'm walking, I must go alone
[Em] [Em7] [Em] [D]
I must take the baby steps til I'm full grown, full grown

And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay

Like a little schoolmate in the schoolyard

We'll play jacks and...uno cards
