G#         Fm7                       C#               Bbm        C#/Eb 
My man is playing the field,            the thrill is gone 

G#       Fm7             C#             Bbm            C#/Eb 
He stays out all night, says he's with the boys 

     Bbm     Cm      C#               Bbm   Cm   C# 
But lipstick on his collar,        perfume on it too

Tells me he's been lying,         tell ya what I'm gonna do

Gonna put it in the want ads,                  somebody rescue me 

G#         Fm7           C#            Bbm     C#/Eb 
I spend my nights alone, cryin' bitter tears 

G#         Fm7             C#           Bbm        C#/Eb 
Although I cry aloud,     nobody really hears 

G#          Fm7                       C#        Bbm         C#/Eb 
And when I need him most,      he's never by my side 

     Bbm     Cm      C#            Bbm  Cm     C# 
He's either playing cards,   or drinking at the bar 

   Bbm         Cm    C#            C#/Eb 
He thinks that I'm a fool,    I'm going to the evening news 

                    G#          Fm              C#      G#/C   Bbm    C#/Eb

Gonna put it in the want ads,               my man and I are through 

                                                                                                       
        G#                                                          C#
