Back Down To Earth 
Tom: C
C                  G
We jumped into a river on the moon
         C             G
But the water was too cold
C                       G    Em
We tried to buy the morning star
Am7                  D
But it was already sold
Em7                  A7
I wanted to make it big with you
              Em7                A7
But my plans must have been too bold
          Am7           D          G
And it's back down to earth again
 C          D       Em7
Back in my car and gone
 Am7          F
Back on the road
Am7           D    G
Back on the road alone
C                  G
You were my summer angel
         C            G
Your eyes how they shone
C                       G    Em
Just last night we were talking about
Am7                  D
How much our love had grown
Em7                  A7
I wanted to prove how good it could be
              Em7                A7
But my plans will have to be postponed
            Am7           D          G
'Cause it's back down to earth again
 C          D       Em7
Back in my car and gone
 Am7          F
Back on the road
Am7           D    G     C  G
Back on the road alone

Touched By The Sun 
Tom: G
Intro: G  Asus2 Bm  A
G                         Asus2  Bm
If you want to be brave
                              A
And reach for the top of the sky
G                           Asus2  Bm   A
And the farthest point on the horizon
G
Do you know who you'll meet there
Asus2     Bm 
Great soldiers and seafarers
Artists and dreamers
      A                                  G Bm
Who need to be close, close to the light
       A                                 Em7  G Bm
They need to be in danger of burning by fire 
     G                 Bm   A
And I, I want to get there
G             A  Bm
I, I want to be one

One who is touched by the sun

One who is touched by the sun
G                   Asus2  Bm
Often I want to walk
                           A
The safe side of the street
G                           
And lull myself to sleep
     Asus2  Bm   A
And dull my pain
G             
But deep down inside I know   
        Asus2       Bm     
I've got to learn from the greats
Earn my right to be living
          A 
Let my wings of desire
                Em7
Soar over the night
A
I need to let them say
                     Em7
"She must have been mad"
     G                 Bm   A
And I, I want to get there
G             A  Bm
I, I want to be one
A                             Em7
One who is touched by the sun
A                             Em7
One who is touched by the sun
G             A     Bm
I've got to learn from the greats
Earn my right to be living
             A
With every breath that I take
Every heartbeat
     G                 Bm   A
And I, I want to get there
G             A  Bm
I, I want to be one
A                             Em7
One who is touched by the sun
A                             Em7   G  D
One who is touched by the sun
Time Works On All The Wild Young Men
Tom: F
F               A7                G    
Time works on all the wild young men
Am                        G
The ones who went for soldiers
                F               Am
The ones who reached for fame
      Am                           G
The ones who swore they’d die for love
      A7                  Am  G7
No matter what the shame
F               A7                      Cm
Time circles ‘round them sniffs their spark
      A7          D
And there they are
G               Dm
Dancing in the dark

People who have bad times
                 Eb 
Write hard luck songs
                 A   D7   A      
But when their days are green
                  Bb
They think about love
  A                      Eb
Sunshine, flowers in a garden
 Eb              A
Did I bump you sir?
Am                 Eb
I'm beggin' your pardon
                       A
Have you seen such a day?
         Am           Eb
Let's begin it by startin'
Dm                               F7
And rollin' down the hills with me
Bb       
People who have short hair
                 Eb 
Write short hair songs
                 A   D7   A   
But when their hair gets long
                  Bb
They think about winding it around in daisy chains
  A                Eb
Waitin' for the showers
 Am                 Eb
Just to wash it in the rain

Have you seen such hair?

Well let the wind play

People who have no hills

Write songs about plains

Well you can jump aboard a bus

Or boat or wooden canoe

I know just the mountain
                      A
That's been waitin' for you

To write songs about the peaks
A           Am      Eb
And the beautiful views
Dm                                    F7
As you're rollin' down the hills with me

One Love Stand 
Tom: E
               E
It's been a one man show that I've been runnin'
On a two way street for love
           G              A
And I see no end to this dead end
           E
'Til you come back home 
                  Em                  E    A 
And I've tried everything to keep remembering
D     A
One good woman
E  
One good man
D     A                    E
Two shots of happiness in one life span
             A7       F   A
It takes a woman and one good man
          E
To make a one love stand
           E
The only thing that hurts is the memory
Of having once lived by myself
           G                 A
And I tried every kind of hustlin' man
         E
Put my love out on a shelf
                  Em                  E    A 
Well, he took everything and left my ears ringing
D     A
One good woman
E  
One good man
D     A                    E
Two shots of happiness in one life span
             A7       F   A
It takes a woman and one good man
          E
To make a one love stand
 
    D                         Bm        
I feel at home in a foreign land
     G                               D            
You know what's next when there's nothing planned
A
I'm talking 'bout love
                   E
You know it takes two
          Em     C#m7             E          A
Well, he took everything and left my ears ringing
D     A
One good woman
E  
One good man
D     A                    E
Two shots of happiness in one life span
             A7       F   A
It takes a woman and one good man
          E
To make a one love stand

It takes a woman and one good man

To make a one love stand
 
Libby 
Tom: F
F                 
If all our flights are grounded
Em7                    A7
Libby, we'll go to Paris
      Bb
And dance along the boulevards
          Am7             D7
And have no one to embarrass
G
Puttin' on the Ritz in style
          F#m7        B7
With an Arab and an heiress
E             E7    A
Libby, we'll fly anyway
F#m   E               Am7
And leave behind our blues
D                  E
Half sung melodies
        Am7           D
We'll trade them all in
         G 
For a Paris breeze
              C   
Libby, we'll fly
F  G
C
See how dark the circles grow
       Bm7                E7
In a town that has no light
     A            
So many eyes just staring out
 F#m7                B7
Into the bloodshot night
      E        E7             A
And Libby, I hate to see you cry
    F#m
And I
           E               Am7
Want to share it all with you
             D                  E
And if it brings us to our knees
        Am7         D        G
We'll trade it all in for a Paris breeze
              C 
Libby, we'll fly 
F                   
They say it don't come easy
          Em7
And they say that love is blind
     Bb
If you're afraid to be close
       Am7             D7
Then love is hard to find
             G
And if you spend too much time winning love
         F#m7          B7
There's no time to be kind
     E           E7
And Libby, I'm guilty of your crimes
F#m         E        Am7
I'm just another passenger
D                     E
Travelling on these crazy high seas
Am7          D
Very likely be the same
       G 
In a Paris breeze
          C
Libby, we'll fly away
F  G
F                 
If all our flights are grounded
Dm                    G7
Libby, we'll go to Paris
      C              
And wish we were back home again
       Bm7
Or sailing on the ocean
          A
Just a window and a drink
             F#m7       B7
To set our dreams in motion
E                      E7 A   F#m
But Libby, we'll fly anyway, hey
      E          Am7
And leave our blues
D           E
Half sung melodies
Am7            D          G
Trade them all in for a Paris breeze
              C           E   F   G
Libby, we'll fly............

 

Ive Got To Have You 
Tom: A
A                                G
You came smilin' softly, shyly movin'
                            A
Easy as a dreamer into my room
                            G
And before I realized the danger
                        A             F#7
I found myself looking into your eyes
D
Somewhere in their colors I saw promises
                           A     F#7
Of things I'd never seen before
           G     
It's all over
Em7               A
I've got to have you
A                               G
Holding onto, talking, saying nothing
                                A
Knowing in a moment I could lose you
                              G
Then without a warning I remembered that
                      A
You trembled at the touch of my hand
D                                 
Knowing when you came to me that no one else
                     A
Would ever feel the same in my arms
           G
It's all over
Em7               G
I've got to have you
Dm                               Dm7
Wakin' in the morning to the tenderness
                  A          F#m7  
Of holding you asleep in my arms
Dm            
Dreaming while your hair was blowing
Dm7                           A
Softer than a whisper on my cheek
D
I don't know the feeling so I don't know if it's love
            A
But it's enough
F#m7
It's enough
              G
I can't help it
Em            A
I've got to have you
           G
It's all over
Em7               G
I've got to have you

You shoot a look like vinegar

I believe it’s like a kind of compliment

I must be quite a girl, "quite a girl"

Are you ticklish

There's not a  cloud to spoil  the view,

But it's raining    Raining in my heart !

Grownup 
Tom: D
D7   Gm                 F
I stood in the doorway in my white nightgown
Gm
Red roses on linen
F
I stood three feet from the ground
     Ebmaj7             A7
The grownups laughed inside
       D             Dm
Used words I didn't know
     Gm7                     A7
But still I enjoyed the show
Gm     
They looked so lovely
F
They looked so self-assured
   Gm  
And I just like them
               F
Would know it all when I matured
        Ebmaj7      A7            D             Dm
And no longer be afraid of the darkness or the bears
         Gm7                      A7
Or the cracks in the ceiling upstairs
            Gm     
Well, I've just gotten older
Am                 
I've just gotten taller
          A7
And the little ones
           Am7 D
Call me a grownup
Gm
Last night at a friend's house
    F
A little girl was there
      Gm                    F
She stood in the doorway playing with her hair
Ebmaj7              A7     D             Dm
She looked up at me as if I could do no wrong
       Gm7             A7
As I stood to sing my song
Gm
I sang it with a shiver
        F 
In my throat and in my knees
Gm 
Feeling just as small
        F
As a thistle in a breeze
         Ebmaj7         A7
But the child's imagination
D            Dm
Carried me along
     Gm7               A7
And saw me through my song
           Gm     
See, I've just gotten older
Am                 
I've just gotten taller
          A7
And the little ones
           Am7 D   A D7 Gm
Call me a grownup

 

Mind On My Man 
Tom: Am
Amaj7                   Bm7
I've got my mind on my man again
Amaj7                  Dm7
I've got my man on my mind
B         
He's everything to me
 D7     G              G7
He's somethin' more special
      Bm7                          E
Than any amount of lookin's gonna find
Amaj7                                Bm7
I'm not hooked on any hero from an idle dream
         Amaj7            Dm7
But I'm idly dreamin' of him
E             D7    G         G7
He's a lotus that opens and closes
Bm7                         E
Notice he won't always let me in
Amaj7         F#m7 G#m7
So, my mind is on my man
Bm7               Amaj7
Got my man on my mind
D                 B7
Sometimes he's sleepy
E                           C7
And I don't think he loves me
Fmaj7                D
I worry about his lovin'
Gmaj7
Ain't I crazy?
          Amaj7                Bm7
He's a northern baby and a southern child
         Amaj7                Dm
He's a gentleman lost at the fair
B        E        D7     G           G7
He's a cowboy, gettin' drunk at the plaza
Bm7                            E
He has a place in my heart, anywhere
Amaj7         F#m7 G#m7
So, my mind is on my man
Bm7               Amaj7
Got my man on my mind

And in her black gymnastic tights
She runs into some elastic nights
 C#7 
Sophisticated sister sings for the
Soldiers of the soccer team
         F7          
Their silver I.D.'s and sororities
They tinker with love in their Model T's
    C#7 
Oh lord, won't you let me be her
             F#
For just one day
              Dmaj7     Gmaj7
She turns everybody's heads
         Dmaj7                  Gmaj7
While I wear her last year's threads
F                    C             A       A7
With patches and stitches and a turned up hem
D             F#            D
Oh but to be, oh but to be, oh but to be
F#
Just once to be
D               F#
My older sister
