Verse I (Male voice)
Am9
Am I asking for the moon?
Fmaj9 Fmaj13
Is it really so implausible?
Dm7 Dm7/F G7
That you and I could soon
Cmaj7 E7sus4 E7
Come to some kind of arrangement?
Am9
I'm not asking for the moon
Fmaj9 Fmaj13
I've always been a realist
Dm9 Dm9/F G7
When it's really nothing more
Cmaj7 E7sus4 E7
Than a simple rearrangement
Am B7sus4 B7
With one roof above our heads
Em EmMaj7 Em7
A warm house to return to
Dm7 Dm7/F G7
We could start with separate beds
Cmaj7 E7sus4 E7
I could sleep alone or learn to
Am
I'm not suggesting that we'd find
Am7 F#m7b5 Fmaj7
Some earthly paradise forever
Bbmaj7 Bm7b5
I mean how often does that happen now
Esus4 E
The answer's probably never
Chorus
Am9
But we could come to an arrangement
Dm9
A practical arrangement
B9sus4 Bbmaj7
And you could learn to love me
Am9 Dm7 E7
Given time
Verse II (Female voice)
Am9
Well, I like my independence
Fmaj9 Fmaj13
I get by, I'm not greedy
Dm7 Dm7/F G7
Do you see yourself as Galahad
Cmaj7 E7sus4 E7
Do I really look that needy?
Am9
I brought a child up on my own
Fmaj9 Fmaj13
It takes me all my strength to face him
Dm7 Dm7/F G7
The father often left me
Cmaj7 E7sus4 E7
and I'm not desperate to replace him
Am B7sus4 B7
Tell me what kind of catch
Em EmMaj7 Em7
Is a struggling single mother
Dm7 Dm7/F G7
I respect you, and I like you
Cmaj7 E7sus4 E7
But I won't accept another
Am Am7
Empty promise when some gray and stormy
F#m7b5 Fmaj7
raincloud hangs above me
Bbmaj7 Bm7b5
Well, I've heard it all a hundred times
Esus4 E
from a man who said he loved me
Chorus
Am9
But we could come to an arrangement
Dm7
A practical arrangement
B9sus4 Bbmaj7
then perhaps I'd learn to love you
Esus4 E
Given time
Verse III (Male voice)
Am9
I'm not promising the moon
Fmaj9 Fmaj13
I'm not promising a rainbow
Dm7 Dm7/F G7
Just a practical solution
Cmaj7 E7sus4 E7
To a solitary life
Am9
I'd be a father to your boy
Fmaj9 Fmaj13
A shoulder you could lean on
Dm7 Dm7/F G7
How bad could it be
Cmaj7 E7sus4 E7
To be my wife?
Am B7sus4 B7
With one roof above our heads
Em EmMaj7 Em7
A warm house to return to
Dm7 Dm7/F G7
You wouldn't have to cook for me
Cmaj7 E7sus4 E7
You wouldn't have to learn to
Am Am7
I'm not suggesting that this proposition here
F#m7b5 Fmaj7
Could last forever
Bbmaj7 Bm7b5
I've no intention of deceiving you
Esus4 E
You're far too clever
Chorus
Am9
But we could come to an arrangement
Dm7
A practical arrangement
B9sus4 Bbmaj7
And perhaps you'd learn to love me
Esus4 E
Given time
Am Am7
It may not be the romance
F#m7b5 Fmaj7
That you had in mind
B9sus4 Bbmaj7
But you could learn to love me
Asus2
Given time
