A A A
The last one you’d thought you’d see there and show myself to the door
A A7 A A7
I saw the surprise and the fear in his eyes I didn’t mean to cause a big scene
Bm Dm Bm Dm
As I took his glass of champagne just give me an hour and then

And I toasted you saying Honey We may be through I’ll be as high as that Ivory tower that you’re living in
(E)
But you’ll never see me complain CHORUS
