  			C                              C7               F 
I called the old crowd over as soon as you were gone 

                    C                                G7 
My first night here without you couldn't stand to be alone 

      C                                   C7                F 
Their jokes aren't really funny but their laughing just the same 

                       C          G7               C 
They're not my kind of people but I'm so glad they came 


     F                            C 
I'll be alright as long as I keep laughing 

     G7                          C 
I'll be alright until this party ends 

                                              C7                F 
But when the jokes have all been told and the drink's no longer cold 

                        C             G7                  C 
They'll all go home and I won't smile till they come back again 

F                      C          G7               C 
They're not my kind of people but I'm so glad they came 


                                       C7            F 
I guess your friends will tell you how I lived it up tonight 

                          C                                 G7 
You'll think that I don't miss you you'll be far from being right 

     C                                       C7              F 
They can't help me to forget you but they're trying just the same 

                       C          G7               C 
They're not my kind of people but I'm so glad they came 

F                      C          G7               C 
They're not my kind of people but I'm so glad they came
