G                   C        G 
I'm going away babe I cannot stay 

                                D7 
It's gonna hurt for a long long time 

              G        C                 G 
But I've been with you and I've been without you 

    C       G            D7           G 
And neither way gives me any peace of mind 


                   C         G 
I may leave in the wee small hours 

                        C            G 
I'm not brave enough to kiss you goodbye 

    Em                          G 
But once I get the nerve up I'm going 

                          D7               G 
Before I'm fool enough to give it one more try 


                       C                  G 
Much more than halfway I've tried it your way 

                               D7 
But you don't see me the way I do 

                 G       C             G 
You really don't want me you want your daydreams 

       C       G     D7            G 
Simple love is all I ever promised you 
  

                   C         G 
I may leave in the wee small hours 

                        C            G 
I'm not brave enough to kiss you goodbye 

    Em                          G 
But once I get the nerve up I'm going 

                          D7               G 
Before I'm fool enough to give it one more try 


Em                          G 
Once I get the nerve up I'm going 

                          D7               G 
Before I'm fool enough to give it one more try
