INTRO:  E  D5  A   A  D5  E

[CHORUS]
A        E
Bye bye, love.

A        E
Bye bye, happiness.

A      E
Hello, loneliness.

E           B       E
I think I'm gonna cry.

A        E
Bye bye, love.

A        E
Bye bye, sweet caress.

A      E
Hello, emptiness.

E           B         E
I feel like I could die.

E           B           E
Bye bye, my love, goodbye.

[VERSE 1]

E             B
There goes my baby

B            E
With someone new.

E              B
She sure looks happy;

B         E
I sure am blue.

E          A
She was my baby

A                B
'till he stepped in.

B
Goodbye, to romance

B               E   
That might have been.

(CHORUS)

[VERSE 2]

E                B
I'm through with romance.

B                E
I'm through with love.

E                B
I'm through with counting

B          E
The stars above,

E              A
And here's the reason

A           B
That I'm so free:

B
My lovin' baby

B               E
Is through with me.

(CHORUS)

(repeat and fade)  Goodbye, my love goodbye.
