Paul McCartney - Distractions: chords

Gm7                    Am7         A7
What is this thing in life that persuades me to
 Dm
spend
               Gm7
Time away from you
                   Am7          A7        Dm Am
If you can answer this you can have the moon
Gm7                  Am7     A7          Dm
This is the place to be, anyway you can see
                  Gm7
There's a lovely view
                     Am7      A7
Why are there always so many other things to do

Chorus:
      A#            D#               F
Distractions, like butterflies, are buzzing
           Gm7
'round my head
              D#            F
When I'm alone, I think of you
                   Gm7                      D#
And the life we'd lead if we could only be free
       F        A#     D# F Gm9 Dm7
From these distractions

The postman's at the door
While the telephone rings on the kitchen wall
Pretend we're not at home and they'll disappear
I want to be with you, tell me what I can do
Nothing is too small
Away from all this jazz we could do anything at all

Chorus:
Distractions, like butterflies
are buzzing around my head
When I'm alone, I think of you
And the things we'd do if we could only be through
With these distractions

I'll find the peaceful place
Far away from the noise of a busy day
Where we can spend our nights
Counting shooting stars

Chorus:
Distractions, like butterflies are buzzing
around my head
When I'm alone I think of you
And the things we'd do if we could only be through
With these distractions

Like butterflies are buzzing around my head
When I'm alone, I think of you
And the life we'd lead if we could only be free
From these distractions
