     Hints:
     The notes as tabbed below are merely a guide as to bass/treble
 Strings for strumming, they aren't set in stone!  Finger the whole chord
 Each time anyway.  The open top E on the off-beat is easiest played on
 The upstroke.

 (etc)
 
 
 
 Bird on the horizon
 Sittin' on a fence
 He's singing his song for me
 At his own expense
 And I'm just like that bird
 Он-oh
 Singin' just for you
 Он-oh
 I hope that you can hear
 Hear me singin' through these tears
 
 
 Love is so simple
 To quote a phrase
 You've known it all the time
 I'm learnin' it these days
 Он, I know where I can find you
 Он-oh
 In somebody's room
 Он-oh
 It's a price I have to pay
 You're a big girl all the way
 
 
 Time is a jet plane
 It moves too fast
 Он but what a shame
 That all we've shared can't last
 I can change I swear
 Он-oh
 See what you can do
 Mm-mm
 I can make it through
 You can make it too
 
 
 A change in the weather
 Can be extreme
 But it ain't like changing
 Horses in midstream
 I'm going out of my mind
 Он-oh
 With a pain that stops and starts
 Mm-mm
 Like a corkscrew to my heart
 Ever since we've been apart

 Оur conversation was short and sweet

 Он, I know where I can find you, oooh in somebody's room
 It's a price I have to pay
 You're a big girl all the way
 
 A change in the weather is known to be extreme
 But what's the sense of changing horses in midstream
 I'm going out of my mind, oooh with a pain that stops and starts
 Like a corkscrew to my heart
 Ever since we've been apart

 NОТЕ:  I got most of this from the bootleg version posted before, but I 
 Made some changes according to what I heard on the album version (Blood 
 Оn the Tracks, 1975). Also, the G#m/E is a bit tricky to play, but I play 
 It by using the thumb on the low E.
