#1. 
NC                C                 F  
I go out with the crowd, I play the game,   
               Dm    G                     C  
pretending out loud..but it don't seem the same.   
                     C      C7           F  
For the heart of the crowd..is gone from sight,   
               Dm     G                C     F Bb  
my part of the crowd..is not with me tonight.   
   
#2.    
               Bb                     Eb  
I remember the prom..every dance with you,   
              Cm      F               Bb  
all the crazy things..that we used to do.   
                          Bb                                              
Sometimes we'd wait for a chance,  
                    Eb 
and then we'd steal away,   
                       Cm     F           Bb  
from the crowd and the dance..to our hideaway.   
   
#3.   
D  
Ohh, but you're gone and it's not the same old game..  
D                                  G   A  
I fall apart each time I hear your na..me.   
      D                                         G  
Guess I'll go along with the crowd..I'll make believe..  
            D                Bb  
that you'll come back to me..run back to me..   
      D           Gm         D  
hurry back to the crowd, and me.
