                     G                       D 
Little heart you've been broken many times before 
          A                    D          A 
But the wound always heals no matter how sore 
     G                                           C 
But this time is different and I can't tell you why 
                   G  
Eat drink and be merry tomorrow you'll cry 

G                                        D 
They say that time will erase all my sorrow 
         A                              D            A 
Well I guess since I've lost you I'll find out tomorrow 
    G                                             C 
Be gay while she's with you don't break down and cry 
                   G 
Eat drink and be merry tomorrow you'll cry 

Instrumental: G-C-G 
G                                             D 
A heart that is stricken with hate and with lies 
       A                   D             A 
Will soon be forsaken and left there to die 
         G                                          C  
Well I guess that's what happened she said her goodbye 
                   G 
Eat drink and be merry tomorrow you'll cry
