A Bm E A
If I my friend can't tell you.
D E A E
When you my friend are wrong.
Bm E A F#m
Not to do what you want to
D Bm E
Just because it’s wrong.
A C#m A
Well then my friend in passing.
D E F#m
We’ve been friends too long.
D E A F#m
And I my friend must tell you,
D E A
Leave that woman alone.
D E A
Your little girls might not understand,
D E A
And you know the baby would cry.
F#m D
And what would you do if their mummy knew,
Bm E
And she told you "goodbye"?
A Bm A
Let it end my friend say it’s over,
D C#m F#m A
And thank the stars above.
D E A F#m
That you’ve got a home to run to,
D E A F#m
And a sweet sweet woman to love.
D E A F#m
I must say my friend if you stay my friend.
D E A F#m
Leave that woman alone.
D E A D A
leave my woman alone.
