[Intro]
 
A     Em9       x4
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
        A                Em9     A
There’s something in the way she moves
Em           D       G        A
 Or looks my way, or calls my name
     Em             Em/F# G        C       D
That seems to leave this  troubled world behind
A              Em9      A
If I’m feeling down and blue
Em           D       G       A
 Or troubled by some foolish game
    Em           Em/F# G       C         A
She always seems to    make me change my mind
 
 
[Chorus]
 
           A       Em   D      A
And I feel fine anytime she’s around me now
      F#m            Bm7
She’s around me now
       Bm7/E
Almost all the time
           A            Em        D          A
And if I’m well you can tell that she’s been with me now
               F#m          Bm7
And she’s been with me now
        Bm7/E
Quite a long, long time
           A   G   D   A
And I feel fine
 
 
[Bridge]
 
D              Csus2             G/B     Csus2      D
 Every now and then the things I lean on lose their meaning
      G/B    Csus2  D
And I find myself careening
     Csus2          G/B               Em   A
Into places where I should not let me go
D           Csus2             G/B    Csus2   D
She has the power to go where no one else can find me
         G/B  Csus2   D
Yes, and silently  remind me
       G/B   Csus2   D                 Bm7
Of the happiness and good times that I know,
       Bm/E
Well I said I just got to know that
 
 
[Verse 2]
   A                Em9    A
It isn’t what she’s got to say
Em          D         G           A
 Or how she thinks or where she’s been
   Em            Em/F# G         C        D
To me, the words are   nice, the way they sound
  A                 Em9       A
I like to hear them best that way
Em               D      G         A
 It doesn’t much matter what they mean
    Em        Em/F#  G       C       A
She says them mostly just to calm me down
 
 
[Chorus]
 
           A       Em   D      A
And I feel fine anytime she’s around me now
      F#m            Bm7
She’s around me now
       Bm7/E
Almost all the time
           A            Em        D          A
And if I’m well you can tell that she’s been with me now
               F#m          Bm7
And she’s been with me now
        Bm/E
Quite a long ,long ,time
                A        G    D     A
Yes, and I feel fine

Excellent tab, a much better chord version than the previous two. The changes sound dead on.

I can't believe I have been a James Taylor fan for over 40 years and have only just heard this song. It is so beautiful. Many thanks for the chords.
