I tell myself, what's done is done
A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7
I tell myself, don't be a fool
Bm7 E7 Bm7 E7
Play the field, have a lot of fun
Bm7 E7 A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7
It's easy when you play it, cool
A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7
I tell myself, don't be a chump
A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7
Who cares, let him stay away
Bm7 E7 Bm7 E7
That's when the phone rings, and I jump
Bm7 E7 A Amaj7 A6
And as I grab the phone, I pray
Amaj7 A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7
Let it please be him, oh dear God
A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7
It must be him, it must be him
Bm7 E7 Bm7 E7 A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7
Or I shall die, or I shall die
A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7
Oh hello, hello my dear God
A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7
It must be him, but it's not him
Bm7 E7 Bm7 E7 A Amaj7
And then I die, that's when I die
A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7
After a while, I'm myself again
A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7
I take the pieces, off the floor
Bm7 E7 Bm7 E7
Put my heart, on the shelf again
Bm7 E7 A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7
You'll never hurt me, anymore
A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7
I'm not a puppet, on a string
A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7
I'll find somebody else someday
Bm7 E7 Bm7 E7
That's when the phone rings
Bm7 E7 A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7
And once again, I start to pray
Amaj7 A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7
Let it please be him, oh dear God
A Amaj7 A6 Amaj7
It must be him, it must be him
Bm7 E7 Bm7 E7 A Amaj7
Or I shall die, or I shall die

It must be him, but it's not him
Cm7 F7 Cm7 F7 Bb Bbmaj7
And then I die, again I die

It must be him, it must be him

Or I shall die, or I shall die...
