Dm                     A# C
Wake up in the morning
Dm           A# A
Get into bed
Dm
Closing my eyes
  Gm   Am  Dm A# A
I rest my head

There is no arrangement
No time no place
It's gone in the wind
And left no trace

Chorus:
F
Who can say
             C
Maybe or whatever
Dm
It's up to you
F
You know you can
C/E
Trust me
Gm        Am
I'll make it up to you

You move with the action
You loosen my strings
Your fingers
Can smooth out my jangles
And all those things

Chorus:
Grease on the handle
And the tangles
In my hair
They always seem
To go together
I don't care

Who can say
Maybe or whatever
It's up to you
You know you can
Trust me
I'll make it up to you

Grease on the handle
And the tangles
In my hair
They always seem
To go together
I don't care
