# Capo on 2nd Fret

G C D x2

G                           C             
Standing at the door of the Pink Flamingo
G                 C    D
crying in the rain,
G                C       
It was a kind of so-so love and I'm
G                                C         D
gonna make sure it doesn't happen again,
G              C 
You and I - it had to be
    G                  C       D
the standing joke of the year,
G                     C 
You were a runaround, a lost and found
   G             C    D
and not for me I feel
C         Em      Bm   C    D
Take your hands off me, hey,
C         Em       Bm       C    D
I don't belong to you, you see,
C      Em          Bm           C    D
Take a look in my face, for the last time,
C                 Em
I never knew you, you never knew me,
Bm            C    D
Say hello goodbye,
G     C         D        G
  Say hello and wave goodbye

C    D
G                         C 
We tried to make it work, you in a cocktail skirt
    G                  C                D
and me in a suit but it just wasn't me,
G                           C         
You're used to wearing less, and now your life's a mess,
G                  C   D
so insecure you see,
G                                 C
Well I put up with all the scenes, this is one scene
       G                        C   D
that's going to be played my way

C         Em      Bm   C    D
Take your hands off me, hey,
C         Em       Bm       C    D
I don't belong to you, you see,
C      Em          Bm           C    D
Take a look in my face, for the last time,
C                 Em
I never knew you, you never knew me,
Bm            C    D
Say hello goodbye,
G     C         D        G
  Say hello and wave goodbye
G     C         D        G
  Say hello and wave goodbye

C    D

G                        C                  
Under the deep red light I can see the make-up
G                        C        D    
sliding down,   [break]
G                             C
Well hey little girl, you will always make up
   G                C              D
so take off that unbecoming frown,
G                C                 
As for me, well, I'll find someone
      G                            C   D
who's not going cheap in the sales, 
G                              C
a nice little housewife who'll give me a steady life
    G              C              D
and not keep going off the rails. 

C         Em      Bm   C    D
Take your hands off me, hey,
C         Em       Bm       C    D
I don't belong to you, you see,
C      Em          Bm           C    D
Take a look in my face, for the last time,
C                 Em
I never knew you, you never knew me,
Bm            C    D
Say hello goodbye,
G     C         D        G
  Say hello and wave goodbye
G     C         D        G
  Say hello and wave goodbye
G     C         D        G
  Say hello and wave goodbye
