[Intro]
C F G C F G C F G C F
F
[Verse 1]
G C F Looking out my window G C F On this easy afternoon G C F Just daydreaming G C F And humming on a tune G C F Letting my mind G C F Go where it wants to go G C F I'm not in a hurry F No reason to worry G C F Nothing I gotta know
[Chorus]
G I spent so long climbing the hill F But I only started moving when I got still Am G F The pace these days suits my style C F G C F So I think I'll stay here awhile
[Verse 2]
G C F Look at that ol' blue jay G C F Building up her nest G C She don't take guff from nobody F Something's on her mind G C F You know she's gonna get it off her chest G C F Let me be that blue jay G C F Knowing I belong G C F And no matter what lies on the road up ahead G C F May I always have my song
[Chorus]
G All those years chasing a thrill F But I never could get my fill Am G F These days, I can't help but smile Am So I think I'll stay here awhile
[Instrumental Break]
G C F Am G F
[Verse 3]
C F It seems like forever G C F I was holding on so tight G C Life was a struggle F G C F Oh, and love, it was a fight G C F Won't somebody save me? G C F I cried and I cried G C F Turns out what I needed all along G C F It was right here inside
[Chorus]
G I worked so hard to get that lesson learned F I'd like to spend time with the peace I've earned Am G F Sounds like my station on the dial C I think I'll stay here awhile
