No capo
Intro
[C]
Goodbye, Should be sayin' that to you by now, shouldn't I?
[C] [C/B] [Am]
Layin' down the law that I live by,
[C]
Though maybe next time
Verse 1
[C]
I've got a thick tongue,
Brimming with the words that go unsung
[C] [C/B] [Am]
Simmer then the burn for a someone,
[Bb]
A wrong one
[F] [G]
And I tell myself to let the story end,
[Em] [Am]
My heart will rest in someone else's hand
[F] [G]
My 'why not me?' philosophy began,
And I say
Chorus
[C] [Am]
Ooh, how'm I gonna get over you?
[F] [G]
I'll be alright, just not tonight
[C] [Am]
Someday, oh I wish you'd want me to stay
[F] [G]
I'll be alright, just not tonight,
[C]
Someday
Verse 2
[C]
Maybe is a vicious little word that can slay me
[C] [C/B] [Am]
Keep me when I'm hurting and make me,
[C]
Hang from your hands
[C]
Well, no more, I won't beg to buy a shot at your back door
[C] [C/B] [Am]
If I make it at the thought of you, what for?
[Bb]
It's not me anymore
[F] [G]
And I'm not the girl that I intend to be,
[Em] [Am]
I dare you darling, just you wait and see
[F] [G]
But this time not for you but just for me,
And I say
Chorus
[C] [Am]
Ooh, how'm I gonna get over you?
[F] [G]
I'll be alright, just not tonight
[C] [Am]
Someday, oh I wish you'd want me to stay
[F] [G]
I'll be alright, just not tonight,
Someday
Verse 3
[Fm] [C]
say it's coming soon,
[Am]
Someday without you,
[Ab] [G]
All I can do is get me past the ghost of you,
[Fm] [C]
Wave goodbye to me,
[Am]
won't say I'm sorry,
I'll be alright
[Ab] [G]
once I find the other side of
[C]
someday
[C] [Am] [F] [G] [C] [Am] [F] [G] etc
oohoohooohoohooh. . .
Chorus
[C] [Am]
Ooh, how'm I gonna get over you?
[F] [G]
I'll be alright, just not tonight
[C] [Am]
Someday, oh I wish you'd want me to stay
[F] [G]
I'll be alright, just not tonight,
[C]
Someday
