Introduction:
Em
When I opened that letter I realized
G Am7
this is nothing I wanted to see.
Em
Now I'm stuck with a pen and some paper,
G C5(C5
and a headache with nothing to say
(This is the picking pattern used in the second half of the verse)
G5 D/F#
That day I left, you came and said to me
C2 D4
you were the only thing I wanted to believe.
G5 D/F#
Now that I'm gone I wish that I could leave
C2 D4
I guess these things just aren't really the way they seem
Em G C7M
What goes around goes around, I never thought I'd be this way.
Em G C7M
You picked me up when I was down, I think I'll be okay
C9
And I remember the day that I met you,
G A7(4)
yeah I remember those things that you said.
C9
You told me that you would love me forever,
G A7(4)
and its girls like you that make me wish I never left there.
C5
(Same figure for the first verse applies to the second verse)
G5 D/F#
I've been on the road so constantly,
C2 D4
I guess I may be forgetting you way too easy.
G5 D/F#
But thats alright I hope you're feeling free
C2 D4
you got what you deserve now you can finally breathe.
C A7(4) D
when I come around there don't even tell me that you're sorry
Em G C7M
What goes around goes around, I never thought I'd be this way.

and its girls like you that make me wish I never left there.
Em
And when I see you again I'll be honest.
G C7M
I'll be damned if you asked me to stay.
Em
And forgetting might make you forgive me.
G C7M
But I know that it won't be the same.
Em G C7M
What goes around goes around, I never thought I'd be this way.
