Intro: G  Cadd9  G  C(add9) 


     G                            Cadd9  
It's killin' me to write the word goodbye, 
     G                            Cadd9 
I've wadded up and tossed a thousand tries. 
G         
We both know the reason, 
            Cadd9 
There ain't nothing to explain. 
    G   
But I know that my leavin' 
     C                 D 
Will spare us both the pain. 


[Refrão]

     Em           C            Dsus4    D  
(Desiree) I can't hold you any longer. 
     Em                C        Dsus4  D 
(Desiree) You love his money more than me. 
        G             Am7 
And the taxi's at the gate, 
        G                C 
I guess all that's left to say 
      G                C             Dsus4   
Is in teardrops at the bottom of the page 
   D               Cadd9 
'I love you Desiree'. 


G  Cadd9   

        G                         Cadd9 
It'd be easier to leave if I were mad, 
         G                        Cadd9 
But it's hard to lose the best you'll ever have. 
       G  
And to write this note to you, 
        Cadd9 
Was the hardest thing to do. 
           G 
But not as hard as bein' a poor boy 
            C                D 
Who can't afford a girl like you 

Chorus (2x) 

G  Cadd9   

                      G  C(add9)G C(add9) 
God, I love you Desiree. 

G                              Cadd9 
I won't be around for your goodbye. 
Love his money more than me 
G                              Cadd9  
I won't be around for your goodbye. 
                             G 
You love his money more than me. 
                               Cadd9 
I won't be around for your goodbye. 
                               G 
I was just a fool who couldn't see 
                                
I won't be around for your goodbye 
       Cadd9                          G 
Oh you love his money, you love it more than me.
