Last night I had too much to drink
D
Sitting in a club with so many fools
C
Playing to rules
F                                          Am
Trying to impress but feeling rather empty
F             C
I had another drink
Drink - a - drink - a - drink - a - drink

What a way to spend that evening
D
They all turn up with their friends
C
Playing the game
F                                  Am
But in the scene I should have been
F    C
Far away
Away - away - away - away - away

B   B flat     A    A flat   G         G flat  F     Em
Getting up, I feel as if I'm remembering this scene before
C                     F
I open the door to an empty room
D               Dsus4   D
Then I forget


Emadd9
The telephone rings and someone speaks
D
She would very much like to go
C
Out to a show
F                                            Am
So what can I do - I can't think what to say
F                   C
She sees through anyway
Away - away - away - away - away


Emadd9
Out of the front door I go
D
Traffic's moving rather slow
C
Arriving late,
F                                 Am
There she waits looking very angry,
F                   C
As cross as she can be

Be - a - be - a - be - a - be - a - be

B   B flat     A    A flat   G         G flat  F     Em
Getting up, I feel as if I'm remembering this scene before

C                     F
I open the door to an empty room
D               Dsus4   D
Then I forget
