...YOU SENT ME FLYING... by Amy Winehouse
------------------------.................
*from 'Frank' (2004)*
Verse 1:
Gm7 Am7 A7aug
Lent you Out-si -daz,
Dm
And my new Badu.
Bm7b5 Bbmaj7
While I was thinking,
A7aug Dm
I didn't have a clue.
Gm7 Am7 A7aug
Tough to sort files,
Dm
With your voice in my head.
Bm7b5 Bbmaj7
So then I bribed you downstairs,
A7aug Dm
With a Marlboro Red.
Bridge 1:
Em7b5 A7aug
So now I feel so small,
Dm
Discover-ing you knew.
Em7b5 A7aug
How much more torture,
Dm
Would you have put me through?
Em7b5 A7aug
You probably saw me laughing,
Dm
At all your jokes.
Em7b5 A7aug
Or how I did not mind,
Dm
When you stole all my smokes.
Chorus 1:
Cm/F Ebmaj7
And although my pride, yeah,
Dm7b5 G7/D Cm
Is not easy to dis-turb,
Cm/F Ebmaj7
You sent me flying,
Dm7b5 G7/D Cm
When you kicked me to the kerb.
Cm/F Ebmaj7
With your battered jeans,
Dm7b5 G7/D Cm
And your Beasties tee,
Cm/F Ebmaj7
Now I can't work like this,
Dm7b5 G7/D Cm
With you next to me.
Verse 2:
Gm7 Am7 A7aug
And although he is no -thing,
Dm
In the scheme of my years,
Bm7b5 Bbmaj7
It just serves to bludgeon,
A7aug Dm
My futile tears.
Gm7 Am7 A7aug
And I'm not used to this,
Dm
I observe, I don't chase,
Bm7b5
But now I'm sick,
Bbmaj7
With conse-quences,
A7aug Dm
Thrust in my face.
Bridge 2:
Em7b5
And the melodramas,
A7aug Dm
Of my day de-livery blows,
Em7b5 A7aug
That surpass your re-jection;
Dm
It just goes to show.
Em7b5
A simple attraction,
A7aug Dm
That reflects right back to me,
Em7b5 A7aug
So I'm not as into you,
Dm
As I ap-pear to be.
Chorus 2:
Cm/F Ebmaj7
And although my pride, yeah,
Dm7b5 G7/D Cm
Is not easy to dis-turb,
Cm/F Ebmaj7
You sent me flying,
Dm7b5 G7/D Cm
When you kicked me to the kerb.

With your battered jeans,
Dm7b5 G7/D Cm
And your Beasties tee,
Cm/F Ebmaj7
Now I can't work like this,
Dm7b5 G7/D Cm
With you next to me.
Verse 3:
Gm7 Am7 A7aug
His message was bru-tal,
Dm
But the delivery was kind.
Bm7b5 Bbmaj7 A7aug
Maybe if I get this down,
Dm
I'll get it off my mind.
Gm7 Am7 A7aug
It serves to con-dition me,
Dm
And smoothen my kinks,
Bm7b5 Bbmaj7
Despite my frus-tration,
A7aug Dm
For the way that he thinks.
Bridge 3:
Em7b5
And I knew the speech,
A7aug
When it came,
Dm
Would be to that effect,
Em7b5
At least you're,
A7aug
Attracted to me,
Dm
Which I did not expect.
Em7b5
Didn't think you'd,
A7aug Dm
Get my number down and such,
Em7b5 A7aug
But I've never hated myself,
Dm
For my age so much.
Chorus 3:
Cm/F Ebmaj7
And although my pride, yeah,
Dm7b5 G7/D Cm
Is not easy to dis-turb,
Cm/F Ebmaj7
You sent me flying,
Dm7b5 G7/D Cm
When you kicked me to the kerb.
Cm/F Ebmaj7
With your battered jeans,
Dm7b5 G7/D Cm
And your Beasties tee,
Cm/F Ebmaj7
Now I can't work like this,
Dm7b5 G7/D Cm
With you next to me.
Chorus 4:
Cm/F Ebmaj7
And although my pride, yeah,
Dm7b5 G7/D Cm
Is not easy to dis-turb,
Cm/F Ebmaj7
You sent me flying,
Dm7b5 G7/D Cm
When you kicked me to the kerb.
Cm/F Ebmaj7
With your battered jeans,
Dm7b5 G7/D Cm
And your Beasties tee,
Cm/F Ebmaj7
Now I can't work like this,
Dm7b5 G7/D Cm
With you next to me.
