Intro: Piano   2 x  G  D  A 
  
    G                        D          A 
My mama said nothing would break me or lead me astray  
G                                  D          A 
Who would have guessed I'd let my mind drift so far away  
G                         D      A 
You always said I was a dreamer now it's dead  
G                                        D        
I'm dreaming of things that's making my mind go crazy  
  A 
Small things like  
  
        Bm                     G 
When I call you at home and he answers the phone  
      D                      A 
Or I get your machine and I don't hear me  
        Bm                      G 
When I lie in my bed with the thoughts in my head  
         D                         A 
When we danced and we sang and we laughed all night  
        G                                D 
Ooh da bop bop baby please don't let me go  
               A 
Can't live my life this way  
        G                                D 
Ooh da bop bop baby please just let me know  
            A                G    G  D 
And put my mind at ease for sure 
  
G                       D  
On a love train 20 odd years now  
   A 
I got off today  
G                                   D 
But nobody said the stop that I've taken  
        A 
Was a stop too late  
G                               D 
Now I'm alone I'm thinking of stupid  
          A 
Hurtful small things like  
  
        Bm                     G 
When I call you at home and he answers the phone  
      D                      A 
Or I get your machine and I don't hear me  
        Bm                      G 
When I lie in my bed with the thoughts in my head  
         D                         A 
When we danced and we sang and we laughed all night  
        G                                D 
Ooh da bop bop baby please don't let me go  
               A 
Can't live my life this way  
        G                                D 
Ooh da bop bop baby please just let me know  
            A                Am 
And put my mind at ease for sure 
  
 Am         F                G 
Maybe it's time to say goodbye  
                             Am 
Maybe it's time to let this lie  
              F                  G 
This is when we must set things right  
 Bm             G                 A 
Now that we've gone our separate ways  
                                   Bm  
I just can't live these desperate days  
             G                    A 
This is what I've been trying to say  
  
3 x (fade) 
        G                                D 
Ooh da bop bop baby please don't let me go  
               A 
Can't live my life this way  
        G                                D 
Ooh da bop bop baby please just let me know  
            A            
And put my mind at ease
