Song: If You See Me Getting Smaller
By:   Jimmy Webb

 [intro:]  C G, F C, Am C, Am G C   C C {piano}

[verse: 1]
C         G         F         C
 Willie you're my constant companion
C              G         F
You know the light and shade
F                   C           Am
We have spent a million dollars
F                      G      G
  To find out what we made.

[verse: 2]
C          G         F        C
  We have made the maidens marvel
C            G       F 
At things we do and say
F                      C       Am
  Down, down and out brother
F             G     G
  Up, up and away.

[chorus:]
        C                            F     F/E
If you see me getting smaller I'm leaving
           Dm       G
Don't be grieving
             F   G         C
Just got to get away from here
        C                             F     F/E
If you see me getting smaller don't worry
           Dm
I'm in no hurry
            F    G     C          C
I've got a right to disappear.

[verse: 3]
C     G     F       C
God bless Philadelphia
C             G            F
They were standing in the rain
F                         C      Am
Out in front of the main point
F                     G      G
  A wet and lonely train.

[verse: 3]
C           G        F       C
 Who knows who they came to see
C            G       F
  A mad man full of beer
F                           C        Am
 A four piece band and a charter bus
F                 G     G
 My border line career.

[chorus:]
        C                            F     F/E
If you see me getting smaller I'm leaving
           Dm       G
Don't be grieving
             F   G         C
Just got to get away from here
        C                             F     F/E
If you see me gettin' smaller don't worry
           Dm
I'm in no hurry
              F    G     C
I've got the right to disappear.
