Desiree chords by David Nail

G              Cadd9
It's killin' me to write the word goodbye,
   G              Cadd9
I've wadded up and tossed a thousand tries.
G
We both know the reason,
      Cadd9
There ain't nothing to explain.
  G
But I know that my leavin'
   C         D
Will spare us both the pain.

Chorus:
   Em      C      Dsus4  D
(Desiree) I can't hold you any longer.
   Em        C    Dsus4 D
(Desiree) You love his money more than me.
    G       Am7
And the taxi's at the gate,
    G        C
I guess all that's left to say
   G        C       Dsus4
Is in teardrops at the bottom of the page
  D        Cadd9
'I love you Desiree'.

G Cadd9

    G             Cadd9
It'd be easier to leave if I were mad,
     G            Cadd9
But it's hard to lose the best you'll ever have.
    G
And to write this note to you,
    Cadd9
Was the hardest thing to do.
      G
But not as hard as bein' a poor boy
      C        D
Who can't afford a girl like you

Chorus x2

G Cadd9

           G C(add9)G C(add9)
God, I love you Desiree.

G               Cadd9
I won't be around for your goodbye.
Love his money more than me
G               Cadd9
I won't be around for your goodbye.
               G
You love his money more than me.
                Cadd9
I won't be around for your goodbye.
                G
I was just a fool who couldn't see

I won't be around for your goodbye
    Cadd9             G
Oh you love his money, you love it more than me.


G Cadd9 (x8)
