Tom: F#m
A D
I packed my bags this morning
A E7
just as soon as she had gone
A D
I could have told her yesterday
E A C#7
but I guess I'm not that strong - so I've
F#m D
left a note to tell her
A E7
I wanted to be free
A A/C# D
She'll find it on the table
E A
right beside my front door key
A E D/A
[Pre-chorus]
C# F#m
And I never meant to leave this way
E A
but I had to leave somehow
G# C#m
So tell her not to worry 'bout me,
B7 D E7
it doesn't matter no -- ow.
[Chorus 1]
A D/F# D
And when she asks you why I've gone,
A E7
and why was I so cruel
A A/C# D
Won't you make her understand
E Fdim F#m D
it's not her fault at all
A E7 A
Not her fault at all
[Middle 8]
A7 D
Tell her that I really tried
E A
but couldn't see it through
A7 D
I'm sorry that I made her cry,
Bm E
but what else could I do?
[Instrumental solo]

[Pre-chorus 2]
C# F#m
And I never meant to leave this way
E A
but I had to leave somehow
G# C#m
So tell her to forget about me,
B7 D E7
it doesn't matter no -- ow.
[Chorus 2]
A D/F# D
And when she asks you why I've gone
A E7
after all this time
A A/C# D
Won't you make her understand
E Fdim F#m D
it's not her fault but mine
A E7 A
Not her fault but mine
[Instrumental solo]
