[Dm] [D]
[A] You got me feeling [Am] so happy
Feeling so sad
I only smile now when you're with me
She not if I
I'd look around for [Dm] someone new
[Am] Wasting her time
But no one can compete with you
That's a bad sign
[Dm]
[Am] [Dm] My friends, I don't hear what they say
Talking [Am] to you
My [A] heart's a [Am] million miles away
What can we do?
And I don't know whether [Dm] to laugh or [Am] cry
Please don't ask me
But [A] I know I kiss [Am] my heart goodbye
[A]
You tell her [Em] she's wasting [F] her time
[G] But still she [A] finds
You're on my [F] [G] [A]
mind
On [F] my
[G] mind
[A]
[Dm] [D]
[A] And every day is just [Dm]
another
[Am] Day without you
And I don't know [Dm] why I bother
Thinking [Am] about you
I see you shoot [Dm] up
Right at the heart
[A] When I get home and slam [Dm] my door
And [D] shout the world out [A] the door
[A] You tell her she's [F] wasting her time
[G]
[A] But still she finds
You're on [F] my [G] mind
[Dm]

[Dm]
[A]
[Abm] So that's who she was
Just a waitress [Gm] in the park restaurant
How strange I thought
How very strange that when [Eb] she asked me what I did
[Gm] I should have chosen to be a waiter in the restaurant where she worked
Now I understood why she left me
Now I understood the hesitations and the mystery
[Eb] And in a way I was [Gm] sorry I had followed her
I hoped she would never know how I found out about her story
How it was all a dream
[Eb]
All that is [Gm] but the red convertible with [F] the red leather [Gm] upholstery
And the chauffeur who stood waiting
[Eb] Waiting she has [Dm] said for her
[Gm] [D] I had said, Ada, when dreams and reality
The [Fm] car you see, [G] that red convertible
[Gm] That car belonged to me
Well, [C] that's my story
Of the bench in the park
[Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] [Gm]
[F] To [Bb] the club, James
[Eb] [Bb] [G]
