Db    Abm7/Db

[Verse 1]
Db                                        Abm7/Db
It’s going to take some time this time to get myself in shape
Db                                            Abm7/Db
I really fell out of line this time, I really missed the gate
Gbmaj7                      Fm7                 Gbmaj7       Fm7
The birds on the telephone line (next time) are crying out to me (next time)
Gbmaj7              Fm7       Bbm           Ebm         Ab7sus
But I won’t be so blind next time, and I’ll find some harmony

[Verse 2]
Db                                              Abm7/Db
But it’s going to take some time this time, and I can’t make demands
Db                                           Abm7/Db
But like the young trees in the winter time, I’ll learn how to bend
Gbmaj7         Fm7                   Ebm7     Ebm7/Ab Db Db/C
After all the tears we’ve spent, how could we make    amends?
Bbm              Bbm/A     Bbm/Ab  Bbm/G       Gb/Ab       Ab6
So it’s one more round for experience, and I’m on the road again
Gbmaj7            Fm7       Ebm7      Ebm7/Ab     Db
But it’s going to take some time      this        time

[Verse 3]
Db                                         Abm7/Db
It’s going to take some time this time, no matter what I’ve planned
Db                                          Abm7/Db
And like the young trees in the winter time, I’ll learn how to bend

So it’s one more round for experience, and I’m on the road again
Gbmaj7            Fm7           Ebm7      Ebm7/Ab    
But it’s going to take some    time        this
