Verse:

           A

Well, you called me up this morning

                  F#m

Told me 'bout the new love you found

           D

Said, "I'm happy for you.

           E

I'm really happy for you."



Found someone else,

I guess I won't be coming 'round

I guess it's over, baby

It's really over, baby, woooh



Pre-chorus:



F#m

  And from what you're saying

              A

I know you've gotten over me

C#7                  F#m    A       E

  It'll never be the way it used to be

Bm                         E

  So if it's gotta be this way

Bm

  Don't worry, baby,

      E

I can take the news okay



Chorus:



           A

But if you see me walking by,

        D

And the tears are in my eyes,

      A    D           E

Look away, baby, look away.

           A

If we meet on the street some day,

      D

And I don't know what to say,

      A    D           E

Look away, baby, look away.

      F#m

Don't look at me

  D                 E           A

I don't want you to see me this way.



[Intro]



Verse:



When we both agreed as lovers

We were better off as friends

That's how it had to be

Yeah, that's how it had to be



I tell you I'm fine,

But sometimes I just pretend

Wish you were holding me,

Wish you were still holding me, oooh



Prechorus:



I just never thought

That I would be replaced so soon

I wasn't prepared

To hear those words from you

I know I wanted to be free

Yeah, baby this is how we wanted it to be



Chorus:



           A

But if you see me walking by,

        D

And the tears are in my eyes,

      A    D           E

Look away, baby, look away.

               A

And if we meet on the street some day,

      D

And I don't know what to say,

      A    D           E

Look away, baby, look away.

      F#m

Don't look at me

  D		     E	     A

I don't want you to see me this way.



[Solo in B: F#m  E F#m B E  F#]



Chorus:



       B

If you see me walking by,

        E

And the tears are in my eyes,

      B    E           F#

Look away, baby, look away.

               B

And if we meet on the street some day,

      E

And I don't know what to say,

      B    E           F#

Look away, baby, look away.

      G#m

Don't look at me

  E		     F#	      B

I don't want you to see me (this way.)

       B

If you see me walking by,

And the tears are in my eyes,

Look away, baby, look away.

Don't look at me

I don't want you to see me (this way.)
