(verse)
D ΚΚΚΚΚF#7 ΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚB
You were my baby and I loved you a lot
but now you're gone and now I'm not
ΚΚΚE7 ΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚA7 ΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚD | | A | | D | | A | |
the sad and lonely boy that I once was
Two long years was our love affair
but now you're gone and I don't care
I must admit baby, I'm a happier boy
(chorus)
B7 E7 ΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚF7 ΚΚΚΚΚΚE7
Yes I loved you I thought the world of you
A7 ΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚ ΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚD | | A | | D | | A | |
you were the gleam the shine in my eye
B7 E7 ΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚF7 ΚΚΚΚΚΚE7
But you left me and now I can clearly see
A7 ΚΚΚΚΚΚΚΚD | | A | | D | | A | |
I'm much better off now so why don't you die
play verse chords
(chorus)
Three long years was our love affair
but now you're finally out of my hair
I must admit baby I'm a happier boy
