Rejection
Brian Bartholow
Tuning:  Eb   Ab   C#   Gb   Bb  Eb  
Words and Music: Brian Bartholow
[Verse One] 
DA single tear falls from your Aface
It's an image I can't Bmreplace
Keeps running Gthrough my head
DYou say my body don't turn you Aon
There's something else going Bmon
Was it something Gthat I said
[Chorus] 
Leave me alonDe
Go far away from Ahere
I can't take this Bmrejection
Ringing in my Gear
Leave me alonDe
I don't want to Acry
You keep blaming Bmme
With those splinters Gin your eye
[Verse Two] 
DYou come home late one Anight
Braggin' about your Bmlife
Talking 'bout some Gother man
DAnd you were too blind to Asee
That your words they were killing Bmme
Gotta get out Gwhile I can 
[Chorus] 
Leave me alonDe
Go far away from Ahere
I can't take this Bmrejection
Ringing in my Gear
Leave me alonDe
I don't want to Acry
You keep blaming Bmme
With those splinters Gin your eye
[Bridge] 
BAnd I don't know where we go from GhereA  
BI just can't take the aGbuse any more
BTime to pack my Gbags and say goodAbye (Guitar Solo)
[Chorus] 
Leave me alonDe
Go far away from Ahere
I can't take this Bmrejection
Ringing in my Gear
Leave me alonDe
I don't want to Acry
You keep blaming Bmme
With those splinters Gin your eye
In your eye...

[Verse One]

D A

A single tear falls from your face

It's an image I can't replace

Keeps running through my head

D A

You say my body don't turn you on

There's something else going on

Was it something that I said

[Chorus]

Leave me alone

Go far away from here

I can't take this rejection

Ringing in my ear

Leave me alone

I don't want to cry

You keep blaming me

With those splinters in your eye

[Verse Two]

D A

You come home late one night

Braggin' about your life

Talking 'bout some other man

D A

And you were too blind to see

That your words they were killing me

Gotta get out while I can

[Chorus]

Leave me alone

Go far away from here

I can't take this rejection

Ringing in my ear

Leave me alone

I don't want to cry

You keep blaming me

With those splinters in your eye

[Bridge]

B G A

And I don't know where we go from here

B G

I just can't take the abuse any more

B G A

Time to pack my bags and say goodbye (Guitar Solo)

[Chorus]

Leave me alone

Go far away from here

I can't take this rejection

Ringing in my ear

Leave me alone

I don't want to cry

You keep blaming me

With those splinters in your eye

In your eye...
