"One Less Bell To Answer" (Bacharach - David) [This one came out in the fall of 1970, and while Bacharach and David continued to collaborate for another couple of years I believe this was their last big hit.] Intro: / / / / / / / / / / / Verse 1: One less bell to answer One less egg to fry / One less man to pick up after I should be happy / () But all I do is cry Verse 2: (Cry, cry, no more laughter) I should be happy (Oh, why did he go) / Since he left my life's so empty Bridge: Though I try to forget it just can't be done Each time the doorbell rings I still run / I don't know how in the world / To stop thinking of him / / 'Cause I still love him so I spend each day the way I start out Crying my heart out Verse 3 (first two lines instrumental): / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / One less man to pick up after No more laughter, no more love / Since he went away (he went away) Coda: (One less bell to answer) Why did he leave me / / / (Why, why, why did he leave) (One less bell to answer) Now I've got one less egg to fry One less egg to fry (Why, why, why did he leave) And all I do is cry (One less bell to answer) Because a man told me goodbye (Why, why, why did he leave) (One less bell to answer) Somebody tell me please Where did he go, why did he go (Why, why, why did he leave) How could he leave me [end cold on Dmaj7] -- another ace 70's tab from Andrew Rogers
