J.D. Souther      Kite Woman    written by  J.D. Souther

D                                    Dmaj7  D7
She's got a way about her no need to mention
        G            A              G              D
How she makes you at home with your feet up in the sky
Dmaj 7                 D7
She's got your attention
            G            A             G                 D
You're just hanging by a thread if she cuts it you will die
        A    D     A            D
She's a kite woman high flying woman
         A     D
She's  a kite woman
              Cmaj 7                        Bbmaj 7
She's got you strung out somewhere down the line
A             D
But you don't mind
D                                      Dmaj 7       D7
Ain't no doubt about her style of her intentions
          G         A           G            D
She looks farther away as she's reeling you in
                                           Dmaj 7   D7
But it's nearly worth it nearly worth the magic
        G       A              G               D
Of that minute or two when you think you might win
        A     D    A           D
She's a kite woman high flying woman
         A      D
She's  a kite woman
              Cmaj 7                        Bbmaj 7
She's got you strung out somewhere down the line
A             D
but you don't mind
F#                G
God I know how it feels coming down
F#                        G       E                  A
Kinda makes you wonder if anybody knows you're still around
     D                          Dmaj 7   D7
Oh I know you never really get accustomed
   G         A        G         D
To part time sunshine full time rain
Dmaj 7               D7
I know how your sufferin
    G          A              G     A        G     G/F#  Em A  D
But maybe the  lightning will cease all your pain
