[Intro]
Gmaj7 Am Am7
Gmaj7 Am Am7
[Verse]
Gmaj7
She stretches out her arms and says
Am Am7
"I, I love you this much"
Gmaj7
I want to tell her how much I care
Am Am7
But I can't stretch my arms long enough
Gmaj7
I wish that I could take her far away
Am Am7
And it would just be the two of us
Em
But she needs time to try a bunch of things
D D7
And have a bunch of fun, huh
Gmaj7 Am Am7
Gmaj7 Am Am7
[Verse]
Gmaj7
'Cause I ain't been all that fun these days
Am Am7
I just sit around in the sun
Gmaj7
I look at trees and fish and birds and things
Am Am7
And I, I try to study the bugs
Gmaj7
I hope she doesn't think the things I feel
Am
Are just, are just a bit too much
Em
But I'm afraid that if I open up
D Dm7
She'll pack her things and run, she needs to run
Gmaj7 Am Am7
Gmaj7 Am Am7
[Verse]
Gmaj7
It ain't easy being small
Am Am7
Wish I could know when I'm in the wrong
Gmaj7
I guess my arms weren't long enough
Am Am7
To scoop you up when times were getting tough
Gmaj7
My legs are far too short to run
Am Am7
So I just sat here, waiting for better times to come
Em
And I couldn't see the problems lay with me
D D7
'Cause I have problems with my eyes, and I have a hard time seeing
[Outro]

She stretches out her arms and says
"I, I love you this much"
I want to tell her how much I care
But I can't stretch my arms long enough
I wish that I could take her far away
And it would just be the two of us
But she needs time to try a bunch of things
And have a bunch of fun, huh
'Cause I ain't been all that fun these days
I just sit around in the sun
I look at trees and fish and birds and things
And I, I try to study the bugs
I hope she doesn't think the things I feel
Are just, are just a bit too much
But I'm afraid that if I open up
She'll pack her things and run, she needs to run
It ain't easy being small
Wish I could know when I'm in the wrong
Well, I guess my arms weren't long enough
To scoop you up when times were getting tough
My legs are far too short to run
So I just sat here, waiting for better times to come
And I couldn't see the problems lay with me
'Cause I have problems with my eyes, and I have a hard time seeing
