Something In The Way She Moves

Words & Music:

James Taylor

 

A                Bm7     A        Em7      D    G  A     D  A

Something in the way she moves or looks my way, or calls my name,

     Em                  G        C       D

That seems to leave this troubled world behind.

    A              Bm7      A       Em7      D       G   A   D  A

And if I'm feeling down and blue or troubled by some foolish game.

    Em     G        C       A

She always seems to make me change my mind.

 

CHORUS:

           A    Em D           A

And I feel fine anytime she's around me, now.

       F#m7           Bm7        D       E

She's around me, now, just about all the time.

           A    Em  D                   A

And if I'm well you can tell she's been with me, now.

           F#m7                Bm7   D    E7   A   G D    A

She's been with me now quite a long, long time and I feel fine

 

BRIDGE:

D             C                 G       C          D

Every now and then the things I lean on lose their meaning,

      G      C      D            C              G          Em7    A7

And I find myself careening into places where I should not let me go.

D           C                 G      C        D

She has the power to go where no one else can find me

       G     C    D              G    C    D            A7           B7  Em7

And to silently remind me of the happiness and the good times that I know.

      Bm7

And I said, "I just got to know them."

 

It isn't what she's got to say, but how she thinks and where she's been.

To me, the words are nice, the way they sound, I like to hear them best that way.

It doesn't much matter what they mean, if she says them mostly just to calm me down.
