[Intro] A

A
Well I've been on the wrong side
       D              A
Of the front door too often
                          E
Watched you slam it in my face
A
Well I may have learned the hard way
 D        A
I'm not a soft one
                            E
Tonight I'm standin in your place

      A               D         A
Cause you taught me a lot about leavin
                   E
Won't even have to try
   A                     D             A
So here's your lesson in heartache and grievin
                        E
And a chance for you to cry
D                   E                A
Cause it's time you learned about goodbye

A
I've stood behind you
         D           A
And I've laid beside you
                      E
But I won't do that anymore
      A
Cause I'm tired of bein
     D             A
Just here when you want me
                            E
Tonight I'm walkin out that door

      A               D         A
Cause you taught me a lot about leavin
                   E
Won't even have to try
   A                     D             A
So here's your lesson in heartache and grievin
                        E
And a chance for you to cry
D                   E                A
Cause it's time you learned about goodbye
