Something told [Eb] me [Bbm] it was over [Bb] When
[Fm] I [Bbm] saw you and [Bb]
him [Ab] talking
Something deep down in my [F] soul [Bbm] said and cried, boy
[F]
[Bb]
When I saw you and [Fm] him [Ab] walking I [Fm]
[Ab]
would rather, I would rather [Bbm] go blind, girl
Than to see you walk away [Fm]
from [Ab] me, child
[Fm]
[Ab] So you see I love you so much
[Bbm] I don't want to see you leave me, baby Most of all I just don't, I [Bb]
just [Ab] don't want to be free
[Eb]
[Ab]
I was just, I was just [Bbm] sitting here thinking [Bbm]
Of your kiss [Cm] and your [Ab] warm embrace
When the reflection in the [Bbm] glass that I held to my lips [Db] now, baby
[Bbm]
Revealed the tears I [Bb] had on [Ab] my face
I would rather, I would rather [Bbm] be blind, child Than [C]
[Bbm]
to see you walk away from [Ab] me
[Fm] [Ab]
Baby, baby, baby, I'm glad [Bbm] to go blind Than to see you walk away [Fm] from [Ab] me
