Baby, bye bye    (video)

 

    G ~    - F - C

 

                        G

1. There were 14 reasons for sayin' goodbye

 

    like the look on her face and the look in her eye,

                    F                                          C

    and the way that she broke the man down,

                             G

    left the man in pieces here on sinkin' ground.

                        G

    There were 14 nights when she didn't come by,

 

    and 14 days when she left the man wonderin'

        F                                    C                          G

    why he even bothered to try, so, baby, bye bye.

 

             Em         C                              G

On the outside, baby's such a pretty girl,

           Em        C

on the inside, baby ain't so pretty,

    D                              D7

pretty since you find a lonely little world.

 

                             G

2. And there'll be one less man that the girl can bring down,

 

    one less man with his eyes on the ground,

                    F                                          C

    from his heart and his hands for the take

                      G

    no more promises for baby to break.

                       G

    There'll be one less man with a tear in his eye,

 

    one less man who'll be hangin' 'round wonderin'

        F                                   C                           G

    why he even bothered to try, so, baby, bye bye !

3. And there'll be one less man that the girl can count on,

 

    one less man she'll find hangin' strong

                 G                                                  D
