       G5                          D5
I'm in love with the city.  I'm in love with the boy.
      Eb5                       C5                    
Gotta put it on record.  Gotta write a new song.
            Bb5                        Eb5                D5     D5
There ain't no way around it, he's in love with another girl

      G5                             D5
I'm a wreck, I'll admit it.  I can't eat when he's near.
        Eb5                            C5
And I'm so tired and nervous that you better stay clear.
      Bb5                   Eb5                 D5     D5
Leave me to the company of me if I can't have him

    Bb5                        F5
I'm trying to be tender.  I'm trying to be cool.
  Eb5                        Bb5
I laugh at my own jokes.  I laugh like a fool.
            C5                       
There ain't no doubt about it.  
     G5                    Ab5    Ab5 G5 Gb5 F5
He's in with his life-long girl

G5                        D5
What chance do I have?  A cat's chance in hell.
         G5       G5 G5
I better take it

             G5                        D5
I'm going to write him a letter, gonna put it in words.
      Eb5                       C5
Gonna make it official.  Gonna make it absurd.
         Bb5                           
Hold up then, there a second, girl. 
        Eb5                     D5    D5
You'll spoil what you have to do

          G5                             D5
They're a sweet loving couple. How could you come between?
        Eb5                           C5
All the talk and the tenderness, the love and the feeling
    Bb5                     Eb5                   D5       D5
His eyes start to sparkle--sparks for the other girl.

       Bb5                         F5
I'm in love with his face. I'm in love with his eyes.
        Eb5                                 Bb5
I could eat them for breakfast. Boy, would he be surprised.
      C5                        G5                 Ab5  Ab5 G5 Gb5 F5
If he knew how I felt, it would spoil any chance I had.


G5                           D5
What chance is that?  It?s a cat's chance in hell.
         G5          
I better take it
