[Verse 1]
 G         C/G                               G
Come, and talk about the things we did to - day,
  G         C/G                          G
Hear, and laugh about our funny little ways,
           C  G/B     Am            G

My darling, be home soon,
      C4                   C
It's not just these few hours
                 G

     G                C/G             G
I think I've come to see myself, at last,
        C  G/B       Am               G
And I see that the time spent con - fused,
          C   G/B    Am             G
Was the time that I spent without you,
        C  G/B    Am  Am/G  D
And I feel my - self  in bloom!
