           C                  G
I know a place where you can go
                                   C
When you're flyin' high or layin' low
                  C7
And I've got the time
                     F   C  Dm
I've got plenty to spare
     Dm            C                       G
Yes, I've got the time, and I've got the place
                       A#
I just wish you were there

I've got the will (yeah) to have you around
Whether you're up, or whether you're down
And I know the way
To make you shine (oooh, yeah)
I've got the will, and I've got the way
I wish you were mine

When you're flyin' high or layin' low

And I've got the time (I've got the time)
                     F   C  Dm
I've got plenty to spare
     Dm            C                       G
Well I've got the time, and I've got the place
