Dan, My Fling - From Carly Simon's Debut Album - 1971
Verse 1:
G C
I said that I felt jailed up
G C
As if our doors were nailed up
G A
I said I needed separate places
D7sus4 D7
Parties, room to move around in
G C
I said I needed my fling
G C
Had to get out and do some other thing
G A
It took me months to calculate
D7sus4 D7
That I had nothing left without you
Chorus:
C G F Em D7
Dan, my fling is all flung out
G C G Am D7
Now I've got to fall back on dreams
Verse 2:
G C
I thought I'd try and write you
G C
I thought I'd try and phone you
G A
I thought I'd try to tell you
D7sus4 D7
That I smell your hair still on my pillow
G C
But you'd just smile to please me
G C
You'd shake your head and you'd tease me
G A
Remind me it was I who first claimed
D7sus4 D7
That we both required freedom
Chorus:
C G F Em D7
Dan, my fling is all flung out
G C G Am D7
Now I've got to fall back on dreams
Verse 3:
G C
I'd dream up schemes to meet you
G C
I'd nonchalantly greet you
G A
I'd ask you up for coffee
D7sus4 D7
Anytime you had an hour open
G C
You say you like my hair long
G C
You ask me if I've written any new songs
G A
You'd laugh, you'd turn and cross the street
D7sus4 D7
And leave me dizzy with your laughter
Chorus:
C G F Em D7
Dan, my fling is all flung out
G C G Am D7
Now I've got to fall back on dreams
Verse 4:
G C
I hear you're leaving this town
G C
You and some girl gonna travel around
G A
You bought a car with foldback seats
D7sus4 D7
You'll camp out by the lakes and forests
G C
I lie alone in our old bed
G C
Your laughter it's echoin' inside my head
G A
I close my eyes, I smell your hair
D7sus4 D7
It's like I haven't slept in years
Chorus:
C G F Em D7
Dan, my fling is all flung out
G C G Am
Now I've got to fall back on dreams
D7 G C G C G C G
Dreams of you… Hmmmmm, hmmmmm hmmmm.
