[G]The writing look[Bm]ed like you[Am][D]
[G]Hello how are yo[Bm]u, and by the wa[Am]y[D]
[G]Please RSVP I do[Bm][Am][D]
[G] thought of writ[Bm]ing sad words, O[Am]f how it used to[D] be
[G]But I didn't wan[Bm]na bring you dow[Am]n[D]
[G]I guess the bell[Bm]s'll ring pretty[Am] well without me[D]
[G]Don't worry 'bout me bab[Bm]y, I'll wear the thorny [Am]crown
I'll play the clown[D]
[C]If you think that [D]I don't love you
[G]You're [Bm]dea[Em]d wrong
[C]And that don't [D]matter any[G]wa[Bm]y[Em]
I [C]couldn't bear to [D]see you up there [Bm]with the white [C]dress on
[C]Here's my vow to [D]you: I'll stay away[G]
[G]I remember when,[Bm] In a lover's wh[Am]isper you said[D]
[G]No other man wou[Bm]ld ever share yo[Am]ur bed[D]
[G]But we both know[Bm] that's not been[Am] so[D]
[G]And I wish I'd n[Bm]ever let you go[Am][D]
[G]Now you've found[Bm] a better man in[Am]stead[D]
[G]I wish you healt[Bm]h and wealth, An[Am]d a white house [D]on the hill
[G]And I, I hope yo[Bm]u raise a family[Am][D]
[G]Little boy and a[Bm] little girl[Am][D]
[G]A little more jo[Bm]y in this little[Am] old world[D]
[G]Would that it be[Bm] enough for me[Am][D]
[C]If you think that [D]I don't love you
[G]You're [Bm]dea[Em]d wrong
[C]And that don't [D]matter any[G]wa[Bm]y[Em]
I [C]couldn't bear to [D]see you up there [Bm]with the white [C]dress on
[C]Here's my vow to [D]you: I'll stay away[G]
[Em]Time rolls [C]on and dreams[Em] they die[C]
[Em]And I've th[C]rown out the [Em]pictures I h[C]ad of you & I
[Em]And if you'[C]re wondering [Em]if love can [C]be true
Well, [Em]think of me and my [C]baby darling
[D]Like I, like I do
[G]Old friendships [Bm]fade away, Love [Am]falls apart[D]
[G]And you've not s[Bm]pent a single da[Am]y outside my hea[D]rt
[G]And there's just[Bm] one more dream [Am]I have inside fo[D]r you
[G]I hope you're sm[Bm]iling when[Am][D]
