D
My lovely woman child,
            G           D                 Em
I found you out running wild with someone new.
              G         Em        A     A7    D
You've been untrue, and ev'rybody knows we're through.
            D       G
But I can't say goodbye to you,
          D            C
no matter what you do.
               G
My heart won't let you go,
           C                D              G
although I know you go with someone new, I think of you.
G          C                  F
I think of how you kiss, your tenderness.
     D              G                C    G    C
With all of this, I miss the way you say, good-night.
      F
Bittersweet your kisses,
                                         F7             C  C7
when my heart still misses, the way that things used to be.
      F
But I know you're strong for, other arms you long for,
                       F7   C  Bb
and you can never come back to me
                        A            Bb
Not just for yesterday, tonight or tomorrow.
           Dm         C                F    D     F     D
Ah, but forever, I'll hear you say goodnight, goodnight.
G                A           G D
Goodnight turned out to be a lie,
G           A            G D
and I can't help it if I cry.
    Em                    A         A7    A   D     F D
Goodnight, my love, sleep tight, my love, goodnight.
