                          A  A7sus4
[tab]A            A7sus4           F#m7
 The one you loved and left behind

                             E
The face you see in light of day

               Dsus2
Then you cast away

                                 A  A7sus4  A
That isn't me in that bed you'll find
[Verse 2]
                        A  A7sus4
I'd rather take myself away

A              A7sus4      F#m7
 Be like those ladies in Japan

                      E
Rather paint myself a face

                Dsus2
Conjure up some grace

                        A  A7sus4  A
Or be the eyes behind a fan
[Chorus]
    E      Dadd4add9
And so you go

E                 Dadd4add9
No girl could say no to you
[Post-Chorus] | A A7sus4 | A A7sus4 | A A7sus4 | A | [Verse 3]
                            A  A7sus4
Oh, there's the way I may appear

A              A7sus4             F#m7
 But that will change from day to night

                     E
Would you ever see within?

                Dsus2
Underneath the skin?

                             A  A7sus4  A
Could I believe you had that sight?
[Interlude] | A A7sus4 | A A7sus4 | | F#m7 | F#m7 | | E | Dsus2 | | A A7sus4 | A | [Chorus]
    E      Dadd4add9
And so you go

E                 Dadd4add9
No girl could say no to you
[Post-Chorus] | A A7sus4 | A A7sus4 | A A7sus4 | A | [Verse 4]
                          A  A7sus4
I'll never be your Maggie May

A            A7sus4            F#m7
 The one you loved and then forgot

                                E
I'll love you first and let you go

                   Dsus2
Because it must be so

                               A  A7sus4  A
And you'll forgive or you will not
[Verse 5]
                        A  A7sus4
And so a woman leaves a man

A         A7sus4              F#m7
 And so a world turns on it's end

                         E
So I'll see your face in dreams

                        Dsus2
Where nothing's what it seems

                              A  A7sus4  A
Still you appear some kind of friend
[Chorus]
    E      Dadd4add9
And so you go

E                 Dadd4add9
No girl could say no to you
[Outro] | A A7sus4 | A A7sus4 | | A A7sus4 | A A7sus4 | | A A7sus4 | A A7sus4 | | A A7sus4 | A |
