Intro 1
(G major) (D major) (E minor7) (D major) (C major)
Verse 1
(G major) There goes my old girlfriend,
there's a (D major) nother diamond ring
And (E minor) all those late night pro (D major) mises,
(C major) I guess they don't mean a thing
So (G major) baby, what's the story?
Did you (D major) find another man?
Is it (E minor) easy to sleep
in the bed that we made? (E minor/D)
When you (C major) don't look back
I guess the feelings start to fade away (D major)
I (G major) used to feel your fire
but now it's (E minor) cold inside (E minor/D)
And you're (C major) back on the street
