Intro: G+G G7G7 C majorC D MajorD D7D7 G+G
('Ah, remember this? Why, I must have been thirteen
when this came out - or was it fourteen? Or was it twenty-two?
I could have been twelve, actually...')
G+G G7G7 C majorC
Just because you left and said goodbye
D MajorD D7D7 G+G
Do you think that I will sit and cry
G7G7 C majorC
Even if my heart should tell me so
D MajorD D7D7 G+G
Darling I would rather let you go
Just because I want someone who's kind
With a heart that's good and pure as mine
But maybe I am asking far too much
Darling, please don't ever break my heart
C majorC
I know you think you're smart
D MajorD D7D7
Just runnin' around breaking lover's hearts
Just because you left and said goodbye - hey!
Do you think that I will sit and cry
Even if my heart should tell me so
Darling I would rather let you go
('This is Dr. Winston O'Boogie saying goodnight from Record
Plant East, New York... We hope you had a swell time....
Everybody here says 'hi'....'goodbye!'')
Just because you left and said goodbye
Do you think that I will sit and cry
Even if my heart should tell me so
Darling I would rather let you go
