      One   less bell to answer

      One less man to pick up after

      I should be happy

      Since he left my life's so empty

      Each time the doorbell rings I still run

      'Cause I still love him so
                   Em9            A13
      I spend each day the way I start out

      Crying my heart out

      Since he went away    (he went away)

Coda:

      (One less bell to answer)    Why did he leave me
       Bm9 F#m7 Em7/G F#m7 G7M/E G7M/A
      (Why, why, why   did    he   leave)

      (One less bell to answer)     Now I've got one less egg to fry
                              One less egg to fry
      (Why, why, why did he leave)  And all I do is cry
      (One less bell to answer)     Because a man told me goodbye
      (Why, why, why did he leave)
      (One less bell to answer)     Somebody tell me please
                              Where did he go, why did he go
      (Why, why, why did he leave)  How could he leave me
