1. Can you believe it ? I’ve won no medails in this
love game,
Am G
I’ve been resting on my
laurels, I’m a bad loser, I’m a yard off my paste.
Am
G
I smell rubber and I soon
discovered that you’re gone for good,
Am G
my
indiscretions made a bad impression, guess I was misunderstood.

2. I started asking around
but your friends’ pretty lips were sealed,
Am G
I wrote a letter full of trite
confessions about wounds that heal.
Am
G
I heard some gossip, you’ve
become an alcoholic, you are dryin’
out,
Am G
so I
phoned every clinic in the yellow pages, not a trace I found.

3. I hate quittin’ but
I’m close to admittin’ I’m a sorry case,
Am G
but
on quiet reflection, my sad rejection’s not a total disgrace.
Am G
But I do miss your quick repartee
and the smile that lights up your face,
Am
you’ll
be a hard act to follow, a bitter pill to swallow,
G
you’ll
be tough, oh, you’re tough to replace.
