	  		INTRO:  Em   A   Em   A 
 
 
VERSE I 
Em       A 
Perfect sky 
 
Em          Dm              C      F - C 
The sun and I are going our own way 
 
Em    A 
I can tell 
 
Em     Dm                     C       F - C 
No one else gonna know how to love me 
 
        G                      C 
But the wind with its hands on my face 
 
        A                        C 
And the tall grass, Lord, how it shakes 
 
          Em       Dm                   C 
All of my worries, worry about me for a change 

         G                        C 
'Cause I ain't looking closely today 
 
      G                        C 
No, I ain't looking closely today 
 
       G                        F              C   Em   A   Em   A 
Like a river so wide, I'm gonna let is slide away
 
 
 
VERSE II 
Em       A 
Long way off 
 
Em       Dm                    C       F - C 
Someone calling, ain't calling my name 
 
Em        A 
Old blue jay 
 
Em   Dm               C      F - C 
Fly away, rather than explain 
 
              G                        C 
Water carries voices and the devil may care 
 
      A                       C 
Me, I don't have an answer to spare 
 
          Em      Dm              C 
No use in asking, I'm feeling the same 
 
 
CHORUS 
      G                       C 
No, I ain't looking closely today 
 
      G                       C 
No, I ain't looking closely today 
 
    G                          F            C 
I'm feeling so high, I'm gonna let it fly away 
 
 
SOLO:  Dm   C   Dm   C   Dm   C   G   C   A   C 
 
 
CHORUS 
      G                        C 
No, I ain't looking closely today 
 
      G                       C 
No, I ain't looking closely today 
 
       G                          F           G  
Like a river so wide, I'm gonna let it slide away 
 
      G                       C 
Oh, I ain't looking closely today 
 
      G                       C 
No, I ain't looking closely today 
 
    G                         F           C 
I'm feeling so high I'm gonna let it fly away
