Your bag's out on the bed. Your closet's all

cleared out. You say you're going to

You're searching in my eyes to try and find a
C A
tear, but the will of my forgiveness has dried
up with the years.
[Pre-chorus]
C
You might still look pretty
Bb Am
in that lacy little dress, but I think you've
D
got your signals crossed if you think that I'm a
mess.

I 'aint gonna die. I 'aint gonna cry.

C
tonight, but the sun's gonna shine tomorrow, and

I'm gonna do alright.
