              Intro: 
          A      G/A      A     A7sus     
 
 
A 
It's gonna take some time this time 
    G/A 
To get  myself in shape 
   A 
I really fell out of line this time 
   A7sus 
I really    missed the gate 
       D7M                            C#m7   
The birds on the telephone line     ( this line ) 
      F#m7         A7M   
Are cryin' out to me 
       F#m           F#m/F        F#m/E          F#m/Eb     
And I       won't  be        so blind        next time 
           Bm                     E 
And I'll find some harmony 
 
 
               A  
But it's going to take some time this time 
    G/A 
And I   can't make demands 
                     A 
But like the young trees in the winter time 
A7sus 
         I'll learn how to bend  
D7M                  C#m7   
       After all the tears we've spent 
         Bm7           E          A7M   
How could   we make amends 
           F#m          F#m/F       F#m/E      F#m/Eb     
So it's one  more round for expe______rience 
             Bm                E   
And I'm on the road again 
              F#m     F#m/F            D        E     A      
And it's going to take      some time   this   time 
 
 
               Interlúdio sobre a 1a Parte 
 
 
               A 
It's going to take some time this time 
        G/A 
No matter  what I've planned 
                     A  
But like the young trees in the winter time 
A7sus 
         I'll learn how to bend 
D7M                  C#m7   
       After all the tears we've spent 
          Bm7           E         A7M   
How could   we make amends 
           F#m          F#m/F       F#m/E       F#m/Eb     
So it's one  more round for expe______rience 
             Bm                E 
And I'm on the road again 
              F#m     F#m/F            D        E     A      
And it's going to take      some time   this   time
