Shes Leaving Me Because She Really Wants To

E            A
Thank you my friend,
                           E
I sincerely appreciate the words you say,

About how she'll cry,
                                           A
And how she'll grieve and miss me when she goes away,
E        A
Say them again,

I need to hear the words once more,
E
I can't believe,

How she'll miss me when she's gone,
                                          A
And how she'll want to come back home and never leave.

          D       A
But she's leaving me
                   D
Because she really wants to,
    E                          A
And she'll be happy when she's gone,
A                             D
She'll be happy, she'll be so very happy,
                               E                                    A
She'll dance and sing and even learn to fly and spend her time with anyone but me.


E               A
What's that you say?
                                      E
That I'll get over her the more that time goes by,

But time goes so slow,
                               A
When all I have to do is sit around and cry.
    E            A
No, she won't be back,
                                E
I'd be a fool to try and fool myself that way.

I know she hasn't one regret,
                                             A
Because she hasn't had one since the day she came to stay.


          D       A
But she's leaving me
                   D
Because she really wants to,
    E                          A
And she'll be happy when she's gone,
A                             D
She'll be happy, she'll be so very happy,
                               E                                    A
She'll dance and sing and even learn to fly and spend her time with anyone but me.

A                          D
She'll be happy when she's gone
E                          A
She'll be happy when she's gone
A                          D
She'll be happy when she's gone
E                          A
She'll be happy when she's gone
