Em/G                 D6             |Cmaj7              B7-9 B7|
     "The problem is all inside your head", she said to me

Em               D#07       |Gmaj9+5        B+|
   The answer is easy if you take it logically

Em             D6              |Cmaj7          B7-9
   I'd like to help you in your struggle to be free

      B7     |Em       Am7               |Em   |

Em/G               D6           |Cmaj7      B7-9 B7

      |Em              D#07            |Gmaj9+5       B+
Furthermore, I hope my meaning won't be lost or misconstrued

   |Em            D6         |Cmaj7         B7-9
But I'll repeat myself at the risk of being crude

      B7     |Em       Am7               |Em   |
There must be    fifty ways to leave your lover

       Am7               |Em

About the fifty ways


Em/G              D6                |Cmaj7         B7-9
     She said why don't we both just sleep on it tonight

    B7 |Em           D#07            |Gmaj9+5        B+
