Bm F#m (x2)
G A
Bm F#m Bm F#m
Sitting in a Dixon garden, wishing that you and I weren't parting
G A
For the last time, the last time
Bm F#m Bm F#m
And I said, "Why you want to get married anyway? That man's got a family"
G A
And then you say, "Couldn't wait on you forever, or could I?"
Bm F#m
"Guess not"
Bm F#m
Bm F#m Bm F#m
There's an awkward silence for the first time, so many years
Bm F#m G A
And as I recall you used to be mine, not some property of his
Bm F#m Bm F#m
And I sing "Ah la don't go, ah la stay
Bm F#m G Bm F#m
Ah la don't go, don't go away."
Bm F#m
Bm F#m Bm F#m
Maybe I should apologize, for I treated you so
Bm F#m G A
And I'm so sorry that I left you here, I just wish I could have known
Bm F#m Bm F#m
You say, "You never can tell, and it's not your fault
Bm F#m G A
See these things just happen when you're dealing with the hands on a clock of a woman"
Bm F#m (x2)
Bm F#m Bm F#m
"And he treats me fine, and anyways I'm getting older"
Bm F#m G A
She said, "Oh but I still miss you sometimes, when the weather's getting colder"
Bm F#m Bm F#m
And she sang "Ah la don't go, ah la stay
Bm F#m G Bm F#m
Ah la don't go, don't go away."

Bm F#m Bm F#m
Do we say goodbye, or just see you later?
Em F#m
She said "Don't make me cry,
G F#m
'Cause it's enough just to know
G F#m
That I won't ever hold you close
G F#m
And I won't ever smell your skin,
G
And I know how I'm supposed to feel,
A Bm F#m Bm F#m
Here we go again singing, "Ah la don't go, ah la stay
Bm F#m G Bm F#m
Ah la don't go, don't go away."
