[Verse 1]
Yes, [D]you're right
up on top
[Bm]An d y[A]ou want to be fr[Em]ee
[A]Why do you feel that you're
too good much [D]to be
For somebody like [Bm]me?
[A]Yes, you're [Em]free to present
me to friends
And you're well [A]set up like that
Well, I guess it's [D]more convenient
for us to forget
But [Bm]how soon you forget
[A]all those fine, [Em]fine things you said
[A]And how just a little success
[D]Yes, just a little taste of success
[Bm]Is gonna add straight to
your pretty [Em]little head
I hold in my [A]hand three letters to [D]you,
three from three [G]different [Bm]stages
of your fine, [Em]super -fine career.
The first [A]one began,
Whereupon, [D]darling, sweetheart,
my wonderful wife,
[Bm]I'll always be grateful
for the [Em]things that you've done.
The [A]second,
Your second let[D]ter came regularly
after I gave you your [Bm]stuff.
Yes, it came [Em]from your pen, dear,
but not from your [A]heart
The third, [D]the third was the joke of
the king [Bm]of the day
You entered [Em]your letter
and crossed the river,
please find my chair
[A]Why, you fool, you poor,
[D]sad, foolish fool
You think your money [Bm]could pay you
For [Em]the hard, hard years I suffered with you
and the things broke [A]your way
Yes, [D]I smiled when you kissed me,
I thrilled at [Bm]your touch
My [A]only sin [Em]was I love you,
yes, I [A]love you much
I'm in on your last [D]letter
that said that we must part
But I'm [Bm]torn into pieces
just like [Em]you tore up my heart
Yes, I'm [A]sad and I'm licked
and I haven't got [D]a dime
But I thank [Bm]God, yes, I [Em]thank my God
I found you out [A]in time[D][G][D]
I still love [G]you, [Em]won't [G]you
please come back to me,
[Em]come [D]back when you honor me
Don't stay from [G]me
But you'll always be my one
[D]We'll be together
[G]For etern[A]ity
[D]For [Bm]me
[Em]That you would leave[A] me
[D]here in [Bm]tears
[Em]Now all you go o[A]n and on
seems [D]like years
[Bm]Now [Em]darling I sin[A]g my song[D][G][D]
You
