Last night I had too much to drink,

 G+G
Sitting in a club with so many fools

 C majorC
Playing to rules

 FF                      A minorAm
Trying to impress but feeling rather empty

 FF        C majorC
I had another drink

Drink - a - drink - a - drink - a - drink

EmAdd9Emadd9
What a way to spend that evening
 G+G
They all turn up with their friends

 C majorC
Playing the game

 FF                  A minorAm
But in the scene I should have been

 FF   C majorC
Far away

Away, away, away, away, away...

 BB       A augmentedA    A augmentedA      G+G      G+G    FF    E MajorE
Getting up, I feel as if I'm remembering this scene before


 C majorC            FF
I open the door to an empty room

D MajorD        D MajorD sus4 D MajorD
Then I forget

EmAdd9Emadd9
The telephone rings and someone speaks
 G+G
She would very much like to go

 C majorC
Out to a show

 FF                       A minorAm
So what can I do - I can't think what to say

 FF           C majorC
She sees through anyway

Away, away, away, away, away...


EmAdd9Emadd9
Out of the front door I go
 G+G
Traffic's moving rather slow

 C majorC
Arriving late,

 FF                  A minorAm
There she waits looking very angry,

 FF           C majorC
As cross as she can be


Be, a - be, a - be, a - be, a - be...

 BB   BB      A augmentedA   A augmentedA      G+G      G+G    FF    E MajorE
Getting up, I feel as if I'm remembering this scene before


 C majorC            FF
I open the door to an empty room

 D MajorD         Dsus4Dsus4    D MajorD
Then I forget...
