Lyrics

Now won’t you list en dear ie (A7)while I (D7)say,

how could you tell me that you’re (A7)goin’ a (D7)way?

Don’t say that (Em)we must part,

don’t break my (D)ach (A7)ing (D7)heart.

You know I’ve loved you tru ly (A7)man y (D7)years,

(G7)loved you night and (C)day;

how can you (C#dim)leave me, can’t you (G)see my (E7)tears?

(A7)List en (D7)while I (G)say:

(Cmaj7)Af ter you’ve gone

and left me cry ing; (G)af ter you’ve gone,

there’s no de ny ing (A7)you’ll feel blue,

(D7)you’ll feel sad,

you’ll miss the dear est pal you’ve ev er (G7)had.

(Cmaj7)There’ll come a time,

Now don’t for get it, there’ll come a time,

when you’ll re gret it.

(Am)Some (E7)day, (F7)when you grow lone ly, your heart will (B7)break like mine and (A7)you’ll want me on ly, (G)af ter you’ve gone,

af ter you’ve gone a (G)way.

(Cmaj7)Af ter I’m gone,

af ter we break up; (G)af ter I’m gone,

to let some bod y come and change your (G7)mind.

all kinds of weath er, (Am)some (E7)day, (F7)blue and down heart ed, you’ll long to (B7)be with me right (A7)back where you start ed.

(G)Af ter I’m gone,

af ter I’m gone a (G)way.

(G)way.
