Eb                   Ab
Don't bother crying, don't bother calling..
Eb                         Bb
it's all over now, there's no use in stalling.
    Eb                       Ab
The love I once felt I don't feel anymore for you..
Eb                  Bb
this time I'll even open the door for you.
Eb                                    Ab
You walked out when I was down..well, now I'm well 
        F                       Bb   Bb7
off and look, look who?s comin' rou..nd.

You're looking good, it's hard to fight it..
Eb                          Bb
but no use to explain, I've already decided..
Eb                     Ab
that goin' with you is worse than without you..
Eb                       Bb
I won't spend a lifetime worryin' about you.
Eb
When things got bad, you disappeared..
        Ab                  F
but I'm back on my feet and look, look, who?s 
         Bb   Bb7
standin' the..re.

Eb                    Ab
You were so young and you were so wild..
Eb                       Bb
I knew you were nobody's innocent child.
Eb                            Ab
That first day I saw you, you really got to me..
Eb                            Bb
I thought I could change you, what good did 

it do me?
Eb
When times got rough, ah, you wouldn't wait..
