Intro: C#/Eb    G#G#

G#G#               C#C#     BbmBbm
Wanted, young man single and free.    Experienced in love preferred,

    C#C#
But will accept a young trainee

G#G# Eb/GEb/G F minorFm            G#G#       F minorFm   C#C#  G#/C     BbmBbm    C#/Eb
Ooohh    I'm gonna put it in the want ads,     I need a love that?s true

C#/Eb        G#G#     F minorFm       C#C# G#/C    BbmBbm     C#/Eb
Gonna put it in the want ads,      my man and I are through

G#G#     Fm7Fm7     C#C#      BbmBbm   C#/Eb
At home I find myself, lost and all alone.

G#G#     Fm7Fm7            C#C#        BbmBbm    C#/Eb
My man is playing the field,      the thrill is gone

G#G#    Fm7Fm7       C#C#       BbmBbm      C#/Eb
He stays out all night, says he's with the boys

   BbmBbm   C minorCm   C#C#        BbmBbm  C minorCm  C#C#
But lipstick on his collar,    perfume on it too

BbmBbm    C minorCm    C#C#      C#/Eb
Tells me he's been lying,     tell ya what I'm gonna do

            G#G#   F minorFm      C#C#  G#/C   BbmBbm
I'm gonna put it in the want ads,   this girl's in misery

C#/Eb        G#G#     F minorFm         C#C# G#/C   BbmBbm     C#/Eb
Gonna put it in the want ads,         somebody rescue me

G#G#     Fm7Fm7      C#C#      BbmBbm   C#/Eb
I spend my nights alone, cryin' bitter tears

G#G#     Fm7Fm7       C#C#      BbmBbm    C#/Eb
Although I cry aloud,   nobody really hears

G#G#     Fm7Fm7            C#C#    BbmBbm     C#/Eb
And when I need him most,   he's never by my side

   BbmBbm   C minorCm   C#C#      BbmBbm C minorCm   C#C#
He's either playing cards,  or drinking at the bar

  BbmBbm     C minorCm  C#C#      C#/Eb
He thinks that I'm a fool,  I'm going to the evening news

          G#G#     F minorFm       C#C#   G#/C  BbmBbm  C#/Eb
Gonna put it in the want ads,        I need somebody new

C#/Eb        G#G#     F minorFm      C#C#   G#/C   BbmBbm  C#/Eb
Gonna put it in the want ads,        my man and I are through

    G#G#                             C#C#
