[G]It was a kind of[Cadd9] so-so [Dadd11]love and I'm g[G]oing to make sure it doesn't h[Cadd9]appen a[Dadd11]gain

[G] Say [Cadd9]hello and [Dadd11]wave goodb[G]ye____[Cadd9]____[Dadd11]

[G]Under the deep red lights [Cadd9]I can see the [Dadd11]makeup [G]sliding down[Cadd9][Dadd11]
Well [G]hey little girl you will [Cadd9]always ma[Dadd11]ke up
So [G]take off that unbec[Cadd9]oming f[Dadd11]rown
[G] As for me, well,[Cadd9] I'll f[Dadd11]ind someone who's n[G]ot going cheap in the [Cadd9]sales[Dadd11]
A [G]nice little housewife who'll [Cadd9]give me the s[Dadd11]teady life
And [G]not keep going [Cadd9]off the [Dadd11]rails
[Repeat Chorus]
[G] Say [Cadd9]hello and [Dadd11]wave goodb[G]ye____[Cadd9]____[Dadd11]
