[Intro]
C F C Dm G F Em Am Dm G
[Verse]
C F C Dm G F Em Am
Max's Kansas City, some many years ago, you always lost the umbrella
Dm G
It didn't rain but I'm sure did snow
C F C Dm G
Catch a glimpse of Andy Warhol, walking his dogs downtown
G F Em Am Dm G
When he talked everybody listened, although he rarely made a sound
C F C Dm G
As for me I never stopped talking, that's all I knew how to do
G F Em Am Dm G
So when it hit me I never heard it coming, the first time I listened to you
[Chorus]
NC. C F
Your're gonna chase love away, you're gonna be by yourself
Dm G
You'll be looking for a lover, and he'll be with somebody else
[Verse]
C F C Dm G
The Seventies oh such strange time, no one knew what to do
G F Em Am Dm G
With the children of the Sixties, it didn't matter what they'd been through
C F C Dm G
So come on we'll build our own world, shut the door so tight
G F Em Am Dm G
Now everything is in color baby, but we always preferred black and white
C F C Dm G
Well of course there were other reasons, it's so complicated now
G F Em Am
I watched you put on your makeup for hours and hours
Dm G
Though we hardly every left the house
[Chorus]
NC. C F
Your're gonna chase love away, you're gonna be by yourself
Dm G
You'll be looking for a lover, and he'll be with somebody else
C F
And you'll be wondering why, you'll be asking your friends
Dm G
But their advice and good suggestions, your obsesion just won't end
[Bridge]
Bb G
I thank God I'm not the man I used to be
Eb C
Looking in the mirror can make you blind you see
Bb G
We were lost in our own fantasy,
Eb C
It hurts to let go untill you're finally free
[Chorus]
NC. C F
Your're gonna chase love away, you're gonna be by yourself
Dm G
You'll be looking for a lover, and he'll be with somebody else
C F
And you'll be wondering why, you'll be asking your friends
Dm G
But their advice and good suggestions, your obsesion just won't end
C F
And you'll be cursing the sky, can't take your eyes off the ground
Dm G
You'll be looking for excuses, when there's no blame to be found
[Outro]
NC. C C
Your're gonna chase love away, your're gonna chase love away
C C
Your're gonna chase love away, your're gonna chase love away
