[Ebm]
[Ebm]
I bet you [Ebm] wondered how I knew
I [Bb] chose [Ebm] plans to make you [Bb] blue
Some [Ebm] other guy you knew before
Between the two [Bb] of us guys [Ebm] you know I love you more
[Gb] It took [Cm] me by [Eb] surprise I [Ab] must say
When [Eb] I found [Ab] yesterday's love
Something [Eb] that I had [Eb] to regret
To [Ab] be mine
[Eb] All I had to regret
About [Ab] to [Eb] lose my mind
[Abm] I let [Ebm] you drown
In the pool of my pain
[Fm] [Ebm] I tried to hide
But [Bb] these tears I can't hold [Ebm] inside
[Bb] [Ebm] Losing you would end my life you see
Cause [Bb] you mean [C] that much to me
You [Cm] could have [Eb] told me [Ab] yourself
That [Eb] you loved [Ab] someone else
Instead [Eb] I heard
[Eb] You're a great plan
Not [Ab] much longer would you be mine
Oh [Eb] you're a great plan
My [Ab] [Eb] [Ab] [Ebm] well -oiled
[Fm] [Ebm]
[Ab] [Ebm] People [Ab] say [Ebm] maybe that's what you see
Son [Bb] of [Ebm] none of what you hear
But I can't help being confused
If [Bb] it's true [Ebm] please tell me dear
Do [Eb] you plan to let [Ab] me go
For the [Eb] other guy you're [Ab] looking for
Don't you know [Eb] I
You're a great plan
Not [Ab] much longer would you be mine
Baby [Eb] I heard
You're a great plan
[Ab] I [Ebm] said
You're a great plan
But you're letting me go
And I heard
You're a great plan
