Never thought that I'd ever want to be leaving
DmDm G+G
you..(ooo)

But late last night after we kissed goodnight
C majorC FF
and I started home..I met a girl so sweet and
C majorC
beautiful and very alone.

And then I gazed into her eyes and knew how much
she wanted me and her lips were just as soft as
A augmentedA C majorC D MajorD
could be-eeee-eeee.

G+G D MajorD C majorC
No tears that I could cry would justify my hurting
FF C majorC A minorAm
yoooou..and my words would sound so cheap..
G+G C majorC
if I said that I meant to keep all the promises I
G+G
made to you.
FF C majorC
I tried to tell her that I loved you but she just
didn't care.
FF A minorAm
And in the dark of night she pulled the ribbon out
of her hair.
C majorC FF
And there was nothing in the world that could have
made me let her go, girl, I'm sorry but I just love
A augmentedA D MajorD
her so..ohhh-ohhhhh.
