Bridge 
G              D 
There's a bird flying high 
              G 
Way up in the air 
                           C 
And I am sitting here with you at my side 
G       D      G 
Way out in the country 

                 D      
There's a lot of real big trees 
D7             G 
Rolling gently on the breeze 
                 C               G 
And I am playing with the bumble bees 
    D      G 
Out in the country 

                 D7 
Puffy clouds are in the air 
                 G 
If it rains well we won't care 
                        C 
'Cause you look good in your underwear 
G       D      G             C 
Way out in the country 

verse 3 
C         C/Bb 
Here I am 
       Dm7      Dm/E  Dm/F     Dm/G 
Let me take you in my arms and hold you 
C          C/Bb 
Once again 
              Dm7    Dm/E   Dm/F     Dm/G 
It feels like we are coming home and well 
C             C/Bb 
Remember when 
        Dm7       Dm/E  Dm/F   Dm/G 
We were young and so in love together 
C           C/Bb 
Here we are 
      Dm7     Dm/E    Dm/F    Dm/G  Am 
Happy like we used to be, and baby  why 

                 D 
Why we said good-bye 
               F 
Why we sat and cried 
            Dm  Dm/E  Dm/F  Dm/G    
Why we ever let this happen to us 

Final Verse 
Ab           G             F#dim 
You know the time is at an end 
    G             Cm 
And you and I can just be friends 
Ab        G               F#dim 
And if we let this moment pass 
  G                  C            C/Bb  Dm  Dm/E  Dm/F  Dm/G  C 
I think we both know it won't come again
