E5 B5 x 4

[Chorus x2]
          E5                B5
I'm gonna suffer for you no longer
          E5                B5
I'm gonna suffer for you no more
          E5                 B5
I'm gonna write you out of my life
              E5         B5
and shut the door



C5       D5                E5      D5               C5       
    You tried to drive a wedge between me and my friends
    D5                E5   D5         C5
You pushed me to the edge time and again
          D5              E5            D5              C5
I've been living in your shade since I can't remember when
        D5             E5            D5
Now I'm bringing this charade to an end

[Chorus]

There was subtlety and skill in your manipulative ways
You chipped away my will so you could make me stay
You soothed me with your voice until I obeyed
but I'm making my own choice from today

[Solo]

E5 B5 x8

You used the tongue of love like a boxer uses fists
You contained me like a glove or a creeping cloak of mist
You guaranteed the stars but there always was a twist
Now I see you as you are - Egotist !

[Chorus x2]

I've got a ticket in my hand and I must be moving on
but I want you to understand that from the moment I am gone
I release and let you go - you owe nothing now to me
I'm not angry anymore - I'm free !

[Chorus to finish]
