_ _ _ I made my [Cm] reservation, I'm leaving [Eb] town tomorrow
I'll find somebody [Cm] new and there'll be no more [Ab] sorrow
That's what I do each night, but I can't follow through
[Eb] I can't break away, though you make me cry
[Cm] I can't break away, I can't take a [Ab] cry
I'll never, [Bb] ever, hang away [Eb] from you
No, no, [Ab] no, no, no, [Eb] no, no
No, no, no, no, no, [D] _ no
[Eb] _ I'll never bow to [Cm]
myself, you and I are through
Nothing can change my mind, I'm sorry, just [Ab] won't do
That's what I say each night

Many cruel words [Bb] are spoken
_ [C] You have that _
[F] spell on me
[Ab] That just can't [Bb] be broken
_ [Eb] I'll take your [Dm] picture [Cm] down, I'm throwing [Eb] away, yeah
There'll be no [Cm] waiting round for you to call in shame
[Ab] That's what I say each night, but I can't follow through

_ I can't say goodbye, [Ab] I'll never, ever, [Bb] _
