Intro:
Em  Am  C7  B7

Verse 1:
Em                     Am
 He left no time to re-gret,
              C7                         B7
Kept his xxxx wet, with his same old safe bet.
Em                Am
 Me...and my head high,
             C7                 B7
And my tears dry; get on without my guy.

Verse:
Em                         Am
 You went back to what you knew,
       C7                            B7
So far removed, from all that we went through.
    Em                   Am
And I...tread a troubled track,
            C7                   B7
My odds are stacked; I'll go back to black.

Chorus:
Em                         Am
 We only said goodbye with words; I died a hundred times.
C7                     B7            - - -          - Em  -
 You go back to her and I go back to...I go back to us.

Verse:
Em          Am               C7
 I love you much, it's not e-nough;
                    B7
You love blow and I love puff.
    Em             Am
And life is like a pipe,
               C7                        B7
And I'm a tiny penny rolling up the walls inside.

Chorus:
Em                         Am
 We only said goodbye with words; I died a hundred times.
C7                     B7
 You go back to her and I go back to...
Em                         Am
 We only said goodbye with words; I died a hundred times.
C7                     B7
 You go back to her and I go back to...

 You go back to her and I go back to...
Em                         Am
 We only said goodbye with words; I died a hundred times.
C7                     B7           Em
 You go back to her and I go back to black.
