Intro: G Bm C (2X's)
G Bm C G
You don`t write, tonight I`m waiting for your call
Bm C G
You say you`re busy baby, but is that really all
Bm C
Maybe it`s just the loneliness that`s driving me insane
G Bm C
But when we used to play, oh...was it just a game
Chorus:
Am D7 G
If it`s so, that we were meant to be,
Am D7 G (tacet)
then why, oh why, did you go away
C Bm Am D7(tacet 2x) G Bm C
And leave me blue, ooh, ooh, you don`t write
G Bm C
No you don`t write
G Bm C G
You don`t write, don`t give me no excuse
Bm C G
I`m sick and tired of all your abuse
Bm C
So don`t say you love me when you`re miles and miles away
G Bm C
`Cause when the cat`s awake, the mice pretend to play
(Chorus)
