I?m writing my own words, my own little stage
E5 A5
My own epic drama, my own scripted page

I?ll send you the rough draft, I?ll seal it with tears

A nice setting for heartache where emotions come last
C#5 D5
Oh, I haven?t even sought to overcome this desire

Of friendly intentions and fare-weathered smiles
A E F#m D
And I don?t want to be, don?t want to be wro- -ong
A E D2
You?re leaving me, you?re leaving me in lieu of this song

Don?t want to be, don?t want to be wro- -ong
A E D2
You?re leaving me, you?re leaving me in lieu of this, in lieu of this song

Like Saturday night I?ll be go- -one
A E F#m D
Like Saturday night I?ll be go- -one

Like Saturday night I?ll be gone before you knew that I was there
