Big Blue Note

Tom:
C        Am         F            G
See that big blue note, over there on the counter
C                    Am                      F            G
You don't wanna read that thing, man, it's a real get-you-downer
C                  Am                F         G
But don't you dare say nothin' else, bad about her
C          Am  F  G
She's gone
No, no, no, no, don't, don't throw it away, 'Cause tonight, I might need it
It gets real lonely around here at night some times, and I have to reread it
Besides, you can show it to the boys down town They won't believe that
She's gone
Chorus:
                   F          Em
There used to be a time I was all she ever wanted
F                G           C
All the man that she'll ever need
               F              Em
I come home to find just like that she's up and vanished
        F                              G
And the only thing she left behind for me
Is this big blue note, folded up in my pocket
Yeah, don't laugh, it's been two months, I still got it
Sometimes I have to read the sucker twice just to make sure I ain't forgot that
She's gone
You know, my psychiatrist said, "Tell me, what do you see
"When you look at these inkspots, "Of, uh, reds, yellows and greens?"
You know, I looked at 'em all, but they all looked to me like
Big blue notes

[Solo]
Chorus
Is stand high on this cliff, overlooking the sea
With my big blue notepaper airplane, that I just set free
Now I'm gonna wait here a few more minutes, and if it don't come back to me, you guessed it
She's gone
