1.   Blue moon out my window,        guess this means goodnight,

Am                                                             D

    and you come in and start right in not treating me right.

G                                    - Em

    Misery's a ball and all          its company,

Am                                                    - D

    I'll play the victim for you, honey,        but not for free.

 

   G                                               - Em

2.    I run into that heartache just          like a wall,

Am                                                          - D

    and act like nothing happened to me,       nothing at all.

G                                           - Em

    Lately I'm amazed at how           blind we can be,

Am                                               - D

    lately even dreaming feels like       old reality.

 

C                         D                 G

    What would I give to be a diamond in your eyes again !

C                         D          G

    What would I give to bring back those old times !

C                     D                  G                      Em

    What did I say to make your cold heart bleed this way ?

C                         D                G

    Maybe I'll just go away today

3.    I don't care who's waiting at my front door,

Am                                                                D

    you know that life don't hold no glamour anymore.

G                                                         Em

    Oh, how can it all look so right and feel so wrong,

Am                                                   - D

    I'll play the victim for you, honey,      but not for long.

 

C                         D                 G

    What would I give to be a diamond in your eyes again !

C                         D          G

    What would I give to bring back those old times !

C                     D                         G                       Em

    What did I say to make your past turn up this way ?

C                          D                G

    Maybe I'll just go away today.

 

   G                                       - Em

+     Maybe I'll just go away,          maybe I'll just go away,

C                          D                 G

    maybe I'll just go away to stay.

G                                       - Em

    Maybe I'll just go away,         maybe I'll just go away,

G

    Maybe I'll just go away.
