Well, you'll have to pardon her frustration.
Am                                     C
She just got out of a bad situation in love,
     D                 Am
That she ain't over yet.
Am
For a long time she's been deep in sorrow,
Am                                   C
She can't face that feelin' tomorrow alone.
             D5         Am
She's got to try to for-get.

C   B    A   G F                 G           Am         C B A G

Someone who can make her feel alright.

No commitments, no guarantees.

Somethin' to hold on to for tonight.

Oh well, she never thought she'd be this lonely.
Am                                            C
She thought that she was the one and only for him.
         D            Am
He would never run away.
Am
But then he left without a warning.
Am                              C
And ever since that sad, dreary morning,
                   D5               Am
Her heart has been mending day by day.

Verse 3:
G5  Am
Now she's got her strength together.
Am                                       C
She can feel a change in the weather for her.
          D                Am
She knows where her head's at.
Am
So forgot all those romantic notions,
Am                          C
And get control of all your emotions.
                           D5             Am
'Cause she ain't ready for nothing like that.
