"The problem is all inside your head", she said to me
E minorEm D#07 |

The answer is easy if you take it logically
E minorEm D6D6 |Cmaj7Cmaj7 B7-9
I'd like to help you in your struggle to be free
B7B7 |E minorEm 
Am7Am7 |E minorEm |
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
Em/GEm/G D6D6 |Cmaj7Cmaj7 B7-9 B7B7
She said it's really not my habit to intrude
|E minorEm D#07 |GMaj9Gmaj9+5 BB+
Furthermore, I hope my meaning won't be lost or misconstrued
|E minorEm D6D6 |Cmaj7Cmaj7 B7-9
But I'll repeat myself at the risk of being crude
B7B7 |E minorEm Am7Am7 |E minorEm |
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
Am7Am7 |E minorEm
Fifty ways to leave your lover

Em/GEm/G D6D6 |Cmaj7Cmaj7 B7-9
She said it grieves me so to see you in such pain
B7B7 |E minorEm D#07 |GMaj9Gmaj9+5 BB+ |
I wish there was something I could do to make you smile again
E minorEm D6D6 |Cmaj7Cmaj7 B7-9
I said I appreciate that and would you please explain
B7B7 |E minorEm Am7Am7|E minorEm |
About the fifty ways
Em/GEm/G D6D6 |Cmaj7Cmaj7 B7-9
She said why don't we both just sleep on it tonight
B7B7 |E minorEm D#07 |GMaj9Gmaj9+5 BB+
And I believe in the morning you'll begin to see the light
|E minorEm D6D6 |Cmaj7Cmaj7 B7-9
And then she kissed me and I realized she probably was right
B7B7 |E minorEm Am7Am7 |E minorEm |
There must be fifty ways to leave your lover
Am7Am7 |E minorEm
Fifty ways to leave your lover
