Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:

 C majorC
I said that I felt jailed up
 C majorC
As if our doors were nailed up
 A augmentedA
I said I needed separate places
 D7D7
Parties, room to move around in
 C majorC
I said I needed my fling
 C majorC
Had to get out and do some other thing
 A augmentedA
It took me months to calculate

D7D7
That I had nothing left without you

Chorus:

D7D7
Dan, my fling is all flung out
D7D7
Now I've got to fall back on dreams

Verse 2:

C majorC
I thought I'd try and write you
C majorC
I thought I'd try and phone you
A augmentedA
I thought I'd try to tell you
D7D7
That I smell your hair still on my pillow
C majorC
But you'd just smile to please me
C majorC
You'd shake your head and you'd tease me
A augmentedA
Remind me it was I who first claimed
D7D7
That we both required freedom

Chorus:

D7D7
Dan, my fling is all flung out
D7D7
Now I've got to fall back on dreams

Verse 3:

C majorC
I'd dream up schemes to meet you
C majorC
I'd nonchalantly greet you
A augmentedA
I'd ask you up for coffee
D7D7
Anytime you had an hour open
C majorC
You say you like my hair long
C majorC
You ask me if I've written any new songs
A augmentedA
You'd laugh, you'd turn and cross the street
D7D7
And leave me dizzy with your laughter

Chorus:

D7D7
Dan, my fling is all flung out
D7D7
Now I've got to fall back on dreams

Verse 4:

C majorC
I hear you're leaving this town
C majorC
You and some girl gonna travel around
A augmentedA
You bought a car with foldback seats
D7D7
You'll camp out by the lakes and forests
C majorC
I lie alone in our old bed
C majorC
Your laughter it's echoin' inside my head
A augmentedA
I close my eyes, I smell your hair
D7D7
It's like I haven't slept in years

Chorus:

D7D7
Dan, my fling is all flung out
A minorAm
Now I've got to fall back on dreams

Dreams of you… Hmmmmm, hmmmmm hmmmm.
