Intro:
Am  C  G  D  Am  C  G  D  Am  C  G  D  Am  C  G  D

Verse 1:
     Am          C                          G
 Hey girl, is he everything you wanted in a man?
D                         Am
 You know I gave you the world
     C                           G
 You had me in the palm of your hand
D                        Am
 So why your love went away
   C                         G
 I just can't seem to understand
D                           Am
 Thought it was me and you, baby
 C                     G
 Me and you until the end,
                     D
 But I guess I was wrong

Pre-Chorus 1:
Am
 Don't want to think about it
C
 Don't want to talk about it
G
 I'm just so sick about it
 D
 Can't believe it's ending this way
Am
 Just so confused about it
C
 Feeling the blues about it
G
 I just can't do without you
 D                 Am
 Tell me, is this fair?
 C                           G
 Is this the way it's really going down?
    D                    Am
 Is this how we say goodbye?
 C                               G
 Should’ve known better when you came around
      D                        Am
 That you were gonna make me cry
      C                              G
 It's breaking my heart to watch you run around
          D                          Am
 'Cause I know that you're living a lie
     C                           G              D
 But that's okay baby, 'cause in time, you will find

Chorus:
            Am                        C
 What goes around, goes around, goes around
                   G             D
 Comes all the way back around,
            Am                        C
 What goes around, goes around, goes around
                   G             D
 Comes all the way back around,
            Am                        C
 What goes around, goes around, goes around
                   G             D
 Comes all the way back around,
            Am                        C
 What goes around, goes around, goes around
                   G             D
 Comes all the way back around, yeah

Verse 2:
     Am        C                            G
 Now girl, I remember everything that you claimed
D                              Am
 You said that you were moving on now
     C                      G
 And maybe I should do the same
                       Am
 The funny thing about that is
       C                     G
 I was ready to give you my name
D                           Am
 Thought it was me and you, baby
     C                     G
 And now it's all just a shame
                     D
 And I guess I was wrong

Pre-Chorus 2:
Am
 Don't want to think about it
C
 Don't want to talk about it

Am
 Just so confused about it
C
 Feeling the blues about it
G
 I just can't do without you
         D                 Am
 Can you tell me, is this fair?
 C                           G
 Is this the way it's really going down?
    D                    Am
 Is this how we say goodbye?
 C                               G

(Let me paint this picture for you, baby)
Cmaj7                       D7
 You spend your nights alone and he never comes home
Em                            Em
 And every time you call him, all you get is a busy tone
Cmaj7                 D7
 I heard you found out that he's doing to you
Em                  Em
 What you did to me, ain't that the way it goes?
Cmaj7                   D7
 When you cheated, girl, my heart bleeded girl
Em                          Em
 So, it goes without saying that you left me feeling hurt
Cmaj7                 D7
 Just a classic case a scenario
Em                   Em
 Tale as old as time girl, you got what you deserved
Cmaj7                      D7
 And now you want somebody, to cure the lonely nights
Em                          Em
 You wish you had somebody, that could come and make it right
Cmaj7                       D7
 But girl, I ain't somebody, with a lot of sympathy
Em
 You’ll see, see
       Em                     Cmaj7
 (What goes around comes back around)
             D7        Em
 I thought I told ya, hey
       Em                     Cmaj7

             D7        Em
 I thought I told ya, hey
       Em                     Cmaj7
 (What goes around comes back around)
             D7        Em
 I thought I told ya, hey
       Em                     Cmaj7
 (What goes around comes back around)
             D7        Em
 I thought I told ya, hey
Em                   Cmaj7     D7        Em
(Take it to him, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
Em                   Cmaj7     D7        Em
(Take it to him, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)

(See, you should have listened to me, baby)
Em                   Cmaj7     D7        Em
(Take it to him, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
Em                   Cmaj7     D7        Em
(Take it to him, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
              Em                     Cmaj7  D7  Em
