[Intro]
(Spoken)
AA7DBm7
Ah, remember this
EE7A
Why, I must have been thirteen when this came out
AA7DBm7
Or was it fourteen, Or was it twenty-two
EE7A
I could have been twelve actually
[Chorus]AA7Bm7
Just because you left and said, goodbye
EE7A
Do you think that I will sit and cry
AA7Bm7
Even if my heart should tell me so
EE7A
Darling, I would rather let you go
[Verse]AA7Bm7
Just because I want someone who's kind
EE7A
With a heart as good and pure as mine
AA7Bm7
But maybe I am asking far too much
EE7A
Darling, please don't ever break my heart
[Bridge]DE
I know you think you're smart, just running around
EE7
and breaking lovers' hearts
[Chorus]AA7Bm7
Just because you left and said, goodbye
EE7A
Do you think that I will sit and cry
AA7Bm7
Even if my heart should tell me so
EE7A
Darling, I would rather let you go

This is Dr. Winston O' Boogie saying goodnight
From Record Plant East, New York
EE7A
We hope you had a swell time
Everybody here says, 'Hi', goodbye
[Chorus]AA7Bm7
Just because you left and said, goodbye
EE7A
Do you think that I will sit and cry
AA7Bm7
Even if my heart should tell me so
EE7A
Darling, I would rather let you go
