Verse (Same Rhythm):
            E           B*
I stood outside like a fool
        A              E
In the night air with you
            E                 B*
And with a face much like a prong
              A         E
Or electric chair I had on

Pre Chorus:
            A              E
I listened with ears that didn't
            A         B
Make no mistake this time


Chorus:
           E               F#
When they say they try to warn ya
            A           E
Lord, they just try to convince
         E           F#
Left my love in California
      A                E
Baby, I ain't seen it since


Verse:

When you said your word to me
I said "Thank you", now I see
Now I really understand
Just what's a woman and what's a man


Pre Chorus:

You now you can't be true
Sometimes when it hurts you too


Chorus

  When I said I'd see you round

You said, baby, oh, you said "Wow"
G#
  Ain't I dramtic? Well, yeah, you bet
F#-              B             B7+
  Because I ain't seen you yet

So when you see me, say hello

When I just walk right on by
