Yes I know I'm late getting home tonight 

    C                                G7 
Can supper wait I guess I've lost my appetite 

    C                                      F 
Yes you can fix me a drink and any-thing's okay 

          C           G7              C  
Oh by the way I met a friend of yours today 


                               F 
I was way on the other side of town 

    C                                         G7       
And coming home I thought I'd stop and have a round 

    C                                      F  
And in this bar I heard someone speak your name 

           C           G7              C 
And that's how I met a friend of yours today 


                                  F  
I listened for a time and I could tell 

     C                                   G7 
That stranger there he knew you much too well 

    C                                                F 
And I introduced myself and you should have seen his face 

          C             G7              C  
Oh what a shame I met a friend of yours today 


                                                    F 
Please don't cry woman cause it's much too late for tears 

        C                                        G7 
Yes I'm sorry too cause it hurts after all these years 

    C                                             F 
And ain't it sad a love like ours should end this way 

        C               G7              C  
And all because I met a friend of yours today 


                                                  F 
And ain't it sad a love like ours should end this way 

        C               G7              C 
And all because I met a friend of yours today
