G
You're too hard to handle, scandal after scandal, you must think I'm naïve

I don't want you to go but I need you to leave

It's wild alibis and those outrageous lies you expect me to believe
Am D G
I don't want you to go but I need you to leave
C G
Well, I've thought about it and I've made up my mind
D G
It's time we call it quits
C G
You know you may be fun for Saturday night
A7 D
But the rest of the week is the pits
G
Measure what we have between the good and the bad And there's just too much uncertainty
Am D G
I don't want you to go but I need you to leave
Solo
Because you placed the blame on the pink champagne for dancin' naked on New Year's Eve
I don't want you to go but I need you to leave
I'll buy a one-way ticket to destination, you pick it anywhere from Tulsa to Tel Aviv
I don't want you to go but I need you to leave
Chorus
Anytime you're nice, I can't help but think twice there's always something up your sleeve
I don't want you to go but I need you to leave
I don't want you to go but I need you to leave
Aw yeah....
