Tell me, just one more time the reasons

why you must leave.

        A
Tell me once more why you're sure you don't 

E
need me.

Tell me again but don't think that you'll 

   E
convince me.

Now, you've said, before falling in love again 

             E
you'd rather be dead.

     Gbm                 B
When someone breaks your heart, you cry your 

E
eyes red.

E
you've led.

show but more blues.

All this talk about leaving is strictly bad news.

So, you settle down and stay with the boy that loves you.
