Intro: Gm F

Verse 1:
Gm
When you first left me
              F
I was wanting more
                          Gm
But you were xxxxing that girl next door
                   F
What'd you do that for? -what'd you do that for?-


Gm
When you first left me
                      F
I didn't know what to say
                     Gm
I'd never been on my own that way
            F
Just sat by myself all day

Pre-Chorus 1:
Gm
 I was so lost back then
F
 But with a little help from my friends
Gm                                      F
 I found the light in the tunnel at the end

Gm
 Now you're calling me up on the phone
F
 So you can have a little whine and a moan
Gm                                     F
 And it's only because you're feeling alone

Chorus 1:
Gm                       F
 At first when I see you cry
            Gm
It makes me smile
                  F
Yeah, it makes me smile
   Gm                    F
At worst I feel bad for awhile
                Gm
But then I just smile
               F
I go ahead and smile

Verse 2:
Gm
Whenever you see me
                 F
You say that you want me back
                  Gm
And I tell you it don't mean jack
                  F
No, it don't mean jack

  Gm
I couldn't stop laughing
                    F
No, I just couldn't help myself
                      Gm
See, you messed up my mental health
              F
I was quite unwell

Pre-Chorus 2:
Gm
 I was so lost back then
F
 But with a little help from my friends
Gm                                      F
 I found the light in the tunnel at the end

Gm
 Now you're calling me up on the phone
F
 So you can have a little whine and a moan
Gm                                 F
 It's only because you're feeling alone

Chorus 2:
Gm                       F
 At first when I see you cry
                  Gm
Yeah, it makes me smile
                  F
Yeah, it makes me smile
Gm                        F
 At worst I feel bad for awhile
                Gm
But then I just smile
               F
I go ahead and smile

      Gm
La-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
      F
La-la-laaaaa

Chorus 3:
Gm                       F
 At first when I see you cry
                  Gm
Yeah, it makes me smile
                  F
Yeah, it makes me smile
Gm                        F
 At worst I feel bad for awhile
                Gm
But then I just smile
               F
I go ahead and smile

Outro:
Gm                       F

Yeah, it makes me smile
                  F
Yeah, it makes me smile
Gm                        F
 At worst I feel bad for awhile

I go ahead and smile
