Chorus – C, D, G, C, A, D
I'm si[G]tting here drinking, got the telephone ringin[B]g
[C]Baby, I know it's you the[D]re on the line
Well just leave a message at the tone
'Cause I'm all alone and that's the way I'll stay tonight
I never promised you anything, don't you go talking no wedding ring
Baby, I run when you pull those reins too tight
And at the bar last night you nearly started a fight
With some pretty girl that was sitting across the way
Then you turned on me with that third degree
Now wait a minute, Babe, that's a game that I don't play
And how come I don't ever see those girls you say that are staring at me
Maybe, Baby, 'cause you're standing in my way
(Chorus)
And I thi[C]nk it's best for [D]me to get my [G]bags, it's time to
l[C]eave
[A]I don't need no woman hangi[D]ng on
Well goodbye, Babe, we're through, I'll never be what you want me to
The only thing I'll ever be is gone
I'll never forget that night we met
When I took a chance and we danced all night long
It felt so right when I held you tight
You squeezed my hand as the band played its final song
But how the hell was I to know you'd be the kind that wouldn't let go
I think it's time for me to move along
(Chorus)
And I think it's best for me to get my bags, it's time to leave
I don't need no woman hanging on
Well goodbye, Babe, we're through, I'll never be what you want me to
The only thing I'll ever be is gone
