[1] I just got a [4] call from my [5] good girl [1] today
Said she must be [4] going on her [1] way
There's [4] better things on [5] down the line
And [1] I'll not try to [4] change her mind
She seems to think we're [5] better off this [1] way

But my heart it [4] breaks in [1] two [4]
It can't [1] believe [2maj] that it's [5] true
Though I [1] want you to [4] stay you're [1] leaving any-[6m]-way
[4] But you've gotta [5] do what ya gotta [1] do

There's times that I know I've not been there for you
Maybe that's the reason for your leaving
I'll try to keep you off my mind
'cause a girl like you is hard to find
Somehow I'll just have to stop my grieving

I guess it would be better if I'd never known your love
Then I wouldn't know just what I'm missing
But I've seen that look in your eyes
And now it comes as no surprise
That another's lips soon you will be kissing
