[B] Girl, I gotta go, I [F#] can't stay
You said [B] things [E] would change
Girl, [F#] things are still the
[B] same
Girl, I gotta go, I [F#] can't stay
We stay together, [E] puttin' the front on
I'd [B] rather be on my [F#] own
On [G#m] my own
When we first met, things [F#] were fine
We went out to [E] dine
We strolled the beach, [B] holding hands
Sharing [Bm] quality [E] time
[G#m] What happened [F#] between then and [B] now
[E]
The love we [B] shared
[D#m] Was lost somehow
[E] But that's not to tell me
That [D#m] we're moving too [B] fast
But [C#m] how could I know
[B] The feelings would pass, it wouldn't last
I know I should've [D#m] left a long time [B] ago
[C#m] But I [E] stayed to [B] see, hoping and praying
[F#] You'd still love [B] me
Girl, I gotta go, I [F#] can't stay
You said things [E] would change
Girl, [B] things are still the same
Girl, [G#m] I gotta go, I [D#m] can't [F#] stay
We stay [E] together, puttin' the front on
[B] I'd rather be on my own
[D#m] [G#m] I took you in
Treated [D#m] your children as [B] thine
[C#m] Then we laid and made love
[B] And you had my son, what a precious time
I did all that [D#m] I could
To get [B] through to [C#m] you
To let you know, [B] girl, that you, [D#m] I was living for
But you made your mind play games on me
[C#m] Yeah, [F#] but I'm not right
[C#m] You think that I don't know
[D#m] That you're passing [B] time with the guy next [E] door
[B] I gave [D#m] you all that I [B] had
You didn't [C#m] love me once
[B] So like a basketball, I gotta bounce
Girl, I gotta go, I [F#] can't stay
You said [B] things [E] would change
Girl, [B] things are still the same
Girl, I gotta go, I [F#] can't stay
We [B] stay together, [C#m] puttin' the front on
I'd rather [B] be on my own
[Bm] [D] Baby, can you tell me
[G#m]
Where I hope [Em] you [Bm] at
I have a wallet, baby, baby, baby
[B] Was a happy home
I can call my own
I can't take no more
[G#m] So I'm telling [F#] you
Girl, [G#m] I [D#m] gotta go, I can't stay
You [B] said things [E] would change
Girl, things [B] are still the same
Girl, I gotta go, I [F#] can't stay
[B] We stay together, [C#m] puttin' the [E] front on
I'd rather [B] be on my own
Girl, I gotta go, I [F#] can't stay
You said things [E] would change
Girl, things [B] are still the same
Girl, I gotta go, I [D#m] can't [F#] stay
We stay [B] together, [E] puttin' the front on
I'd rather [B] be on my own [F#] [B] [E] Breakdown, breakdown
[D#m] Cause I wanna talk to my [B] people this [C#m] evening
And let them [B] know
It takes a fool to learn
That love [D#m] don't love nobody
[B] [E] That's what I can truly say in my [B] heart
That love don't [F#] need
[B] No more business anymore
Good [D#m] God Almighty
Baby, you hurt me so [C#m] bad
But oh, Almighty, grateful
[B] Let them be
For the way they're ending
[F#]
[B] [E] It's alright, it's [B] okay
You're my move-on anyway
I gotta move on
[F#] Yeah,
[E] yeah
Baby, [B] you hurt me so bad
I gotta move on, yeah
[F#]
[B] [E]
