Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I guess you're nev[G]er gonna come back for me Ma[D]
With a [G]suitcase of pretty [D]dresses and [A]shoes[D]
One [G]for you and one for me, [D]Ma
and per[G]fume for the [D]ladies looking
af[A]ter me [D]too
There was a chair be[G]side the door
I wished you'd walk [D]through
[G]Wearing you[D]r sad eyes[A]
[D]of brown
You'd stand beside me and we'd [G]wind the victrola
[D]And[G] sing along toget[D]her
[A]Make the sweetest [G]sounds
I used to think it might be who I [D]am
[A]Maybe who I am wasn't [Bm]right[G]
And I'd wonder [D]if you missed me the same
[A]way Lonely day after [Bm]lonely [G]night
[A]But I k[D]now you must have had[G] a good rea[D]son You[G] had
a [A]good reason [D]alright[G][D][A][D][G][D]
[A][D]
I guess you're never [G]gonna
see me a shin[D]ing
[G]All the lines of people wind[D]ing [A]around the block The world is mine
[D]and it's a [G]microphone [A]in my [G]hand Singing with the band [D]Ma
[A]The toast of [D]the town
Sometimes I think I see you [G]out there a smil[D]ing
[G]Your pre[D]tty sad eyes s[A]inging alon[D]g
And all at once [G]I'm a bird with no [D]ceil[G]ing
A voice and [D]feeling like
I'll [A]never come down
[G]I used to think it might be who[D] I am
May[A]be who I am wasn't [Bm]right[G]
And I'd wonder if [D]you missed me the same
[A]way Lonely day after [Bm]lonely [D]night
But I know you must [G]have had a good
[D]reason [G]You had a g[A]ood reason alright
