[Verse]
A D G C A D G C
A D G C
In the terminal, waiting for her plane to come
A D G C
She's on the pedestal, twittling her thumbs
A D G C
The man who's boarding now, he seats her with some rum
A D G C
That girl, she is leaving home
A D G C
Her time's an hourglass, sits upon the wall
A D G C
She watch the grains of sand, tumble as they fall
A D G C
She'll count the minutes, until it's time to go
A D G C
That girl, she is leaving home
A D G C A D G C
[Chorus]
A D
When she's blue, I
G C A D G C
I send her away to the blue skies in the sunshine
A D
And by night,
G C A
She's as high as the starlight
D G C A D G C
She's the moonlight in my eyeees
[Verse]
A D G C A D G C
A D G C
Where she's coming from, he'll never know
A D G C
And where she's going to, that girl will never know
A D G C
It's all ahead of her, she's born to roam
A D G C
That girl, she is leaving home
A D G C A D G C
[Chorus]
A D
When she's blue, I
G C A D G C
I send her away to the blue skies in the sunshine
A D
And by night,
G C A
She's as high as the starlight
D G C A D G C
She's the moonlight in my eyeees
A D G C A D G C
