[Verse 1]
[A]I j[F]ust[E] sa[D]w y[A]our
friend [F]and he told me
To for[E]get your haircut [Em]and
for[D]get your shoes
[A]He told me all the things I [F]ought to forget
And I for[E]got them [Em]all, except [D]for you
[A]Now in the corridor [F]light comes
on where no [E]light should be
[Em]And I he[D]ar you shout
[A]Turn around and now[Am] the ligh[F]t goes
[E]out[Em][D][E][C][D][F]
[E][D]
[A]I look down the step wit[F]h a tongue that used to say[E] your nam[Am]e,
when [D]I know you were
[A]And I send another bir[F]thday card,
and I re[E]member how hard it [Am]is to w[D]rite that wo[A]rd
On the corner by the [F]red post box,
the way the [E]pavement [Em]rocks, and I [D]can't get near
[A]Baby, try [F]again next [E]year
[D]So forget [Am]her[F][Em]
[D]So forget [Am]her[F][Em]
[D]So forget [Am]her[F][Em]

[A]I just saw your friend and[F] he asked
me when your [E]birthday was
And [D]I told him lies
[A]He seemed so happy
[Am]when he [F]walked away
And I [E]smiled for you and [Em]his b[D]ig surprise
[A]Now in the living room a [F]light goes out
And all the [E]candles [Em]shake
on your [D]birthday cake
[A]Take a breath and [Am]then
you [F]blow [E]away[Am]
[D]So forget
[Am]Ooh, [F]oo h, [Em]so fo[D]rgive
[Am]Ooh, [F]ooh[Em], so [D]forgive

[F]oo [Em]h, oo[D] h[Am], ooh[F], o[Em]oh, [D]ooh,[Am][F][Em]

I [D]won't suffer again
