[Intro] Am C Bm E Am C Bm E [Verse 1]
Am                   C                       Dm       E
If she's not here by now, then I guess she's not coming

Am                    C#m      D          C            G     Gadd6
If she's not here by now,      then I guess she don't care

      Dm
Oh waiter, I won't waste your time anymore

            E
You've already started to sweep down the floor

          F                                           E
And I guess she's not coming, so I'll head for the door

           Am G Em Dm                Am
I'll be taking  my  business elsewhere
[Verse 2]
Am          C                 Dm       E
It wasn't for me, that spark in her eyes

Am          C#m      D         C       G      Gadd6
It wasn't for me, that halo in her hair

      Dm
When she touched me a lump rose up into my throat

            E
But she must act that way with any old soak

      F                                      E
And waiter you don't seem to share in the joke

           Am G Em Dm                Am
So I'll be taking my business elsewhere
[Bridge]
C
She called me her fantasy and boldly she kissed me

     E
I'll never get over the sheer surprise

        F                               B
Of her acting that way and I'm healing OK

E
But for the eyes of her
[Verse 3]
Am               C                       Dm       E
Oh it's cold in the rain and it's dark and it's sad

Am           C#m      D          C            G     Gadd6
And I'll miss her tonight on my lonely back stair

      Dm
I'm sorry for taking so much of your space

            E
I'll move down the street to some friendlier place

             F                                  B
'Cause I guess she's not coming, and you're sick of my face

           Am G Em Dm                Am
I'll be taking my business elsewhere

           Am G Em Dm                Am
I'll be taking my business elsewhere
Am C Bm E Am C Bm E
