Bye Bye Tab

::Intro::
     

::Verse #1::
                                                        
Girl you sure look pretty there standin' in the doorway in the sunset light
                                                 
Maybe I read you wrong thinkin' I could be your Mr. Right
                Emin7       
I was puttin' my heart and soul on the line
                Emin7            
Said you needed some time, just a little more 
                    Emin7               
time to make up your mind Well it's been 
                  
long enough your time is up

::Chorus::
                           
Bye bye love, I'll catch you later
                                  
Got a lead foot down on my accelerator 
                                            
and the rearview mirror torn off I ain't never 
                                            
lookin' back. And that's a fact.
                        
I've tried all I can imagine
                                       
I've begged and pleaded in true lover's fashion
                                
I've got pride, I'm takin' it for a ride
                        
Bye bye, bye bye my baby, bye bye

::Verse #2::
                                                              
Don't think all those tears are gonna hold me here like they've done before
                                                  
You'll see what's left of us in a cloud of dust on highway four
                Emin7        
Darlin' what did you expect me to do
             Emin7     
sit around and wait on you
                           Emin7            
I'm through watchin' you just skate around the truth
              
And I know it sounds trite

I've seen the light

::Repeat Chorus::


::Bridge::
                       
            I'd lost the game I guess
            
I did my best to win the part
                        
Now I'm leavin' here with what's left of my heart.


::Chorus::   (pay attention, it's slightly different)
                       
Bye bye, I'll catch you later
                                     
Got a lead foot down on my accelerator and the 
                       
rearview mirror torn off 'Cause I ain't never lookin' 
                            
back.  You can count on that.
                      
I've tried all I can imagine
                                      
I've begged and pleaded in true lover's fashion
                              
I've got pride, I'm takin' it for a ride
                         
Bye bye, bye bye my baby, bye bye
