I'll pack up all my things and walk away
A
I don't want to hear another word you have to say
D D7 G
I've been waitin' for so long, I just found out there's somethin' wrong
D Em A D
And nothin' will get better if I stay
D
There's no need to explain anymore
A
I tried my best to love you, now I'm walkin' out the door
D D7 G Gm
You used me, you de ceived me, and you never seemed to need me
D Em A D
But I'll bet you won't for get me when I go
A D
Seems I've been lost in a dream, pretendin' that you care
A D
But now I've opened up my eyes, and found it's all been just a great big fairy tale
G D
I've been lovin' you so long, I don't think I even know how to for get you
G A
And the way that things have been, I think I'm better off alone, than to be with you
D
You don't love me, it's plain to see, there's no need to explain anymore
A
I tried my best to love you, now I'm walkin' out the door
D D7/C G/B Gm/Bb
You used me, you de ceived me, and you never seemed to need me
D Em A D
But I'll bet you won't for get me when I go
A D
Seems like I've been lost in a dream, pretendin' that you care
A D
Someday you'll open up your eyes, and real ize a good man is hard to find
D
You have been lost in a dream, pretendin' that you care
A
And now I'll open up my eyes, and real ize fade out
