Intro: G Cadd9 G C(add9)
G Cadd9
It's killin' me to write the word goodbye,
G Cadd9
I've wadded up and tossed a thousand tries.
G
We both know the reason,
Cadd9
There ain't nothing to explain.
G
But I know that my leavin'
C D
Will spare us both the pain.
Em C Dsus4 D
(Desiree) I can't hold you any longer.
Em C Dsus4 D
(Desiree) You love his money more than me.
G Am7
And the taxi's at the gate,
G C
I guess all that's left to say
G C Dsus4
Is in teardrops at the bottom of the page
D Cadd9
'I love you Desiree'.
G Cadd9
G Cadd9
It'd be easier to leave if I were mad,
G Cadd9
But it's hard to lose the best you'll ever have.
G
And to write this note to you,
Cadd9
Was the hardest thing to do.
G
But not as hard as bein' a poor boy
C D
Who can't afford a girl like you
Chorus (2x)
G Cadd9
G C(add9)G C(add9)
God, I love you Desiree.
G Cadd9
I won't be around for your goodbye.
Love his money more than me
G Cadd9
I won't be around for your goodbye.
G
You love his money more than me.
Cadd9
I won't be around for your goodbye.
G
I was just a fool who couldn't see
I won't be around for your goodbye
Cadd9 G
Oh you love his money, you love it more than me.
