A             C#m         D          A
I should have known you'd bid me farewell,

                       C#m
There's a lesson to be learned from this and I've

D               E    E7
learned it very well.

D                 E            A               F#m7
Now I know you're not the only starfish in the sea,

     Bm              C#m              D              C#7
If I never hear your name again, it's all the same to me.

F#m                                  Bm
And I think it's gonna be all right, yeah,

    E                             D          A
The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball.

A         C#m       D           A
You never cared for secrets I'd confide.

                    C#m       D                  E    E7
For you I'm just an ornament, something for your pride.

D               E             A                   F#m
Always running, never caring, that's the life you live.

Bm             C#m               D              C#7
Stolen minutes of your time were all you had to give.

F#m                                  Bm
And I think it's gonna be all right, yeah,

    E                             D          A
The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball.

    Bb             Dm         Eb           Bb
The story's in the past, with nothing to recall,

                    Dm         Eb                F   F7
I've got my life to live and I don't need you at all.

    Eb             F               Bb           Gm
The roller-coaster ride we took is nearly at an end,

  Cm               Dm                    Eb
I bought my ticket with my tears, that's all I'm gonna

D7
spend.

Gm                                   Cm
And I think it's gonna be all right, yeah,

    F                             Eb          Bb
The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball..Whoooaa, ohhh, ohhh..

Gm                                   Cm
And I think it's gonna be all right, yeah,

    F                             Eb         Bb
The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball.
