[Verse 1]
A A7 F#m A7
With pen in hand you signed your name
D Bm E7
Today at five I'll be on that train
A G D E7
And you'll be free and I will be alone
Bm E7
So alone
[Verse 2]
A A7 F#m A7
If you think we can find the love we once knew
D Bm E7
If you think I can't make everything up to you
A G D A E7
Then I'll be gone and you'll be on your own
Bm E7
You'll be on your own

A A7 F#m A7
Can you take good care of Johnny
D Bm E7
Can you take him to school every-day
A G
Can you teach him how to catch a fish
D A E7
And keep all those bullies away
Bm E7
Hear what I say
[Verse 4]
A A7 F#m A7
Can you teach him how to whistle a tune
D Bm E7
Can you tell him about the man in the moon
A G D A E7
If you can do these things then maybe he won't miss me
Bm E7
Maybe he won't miss me
[Verse 5]
A A7 F#m A7
And tonight as you lay in that big lonely bed
D Bm E7
And you look at the pillow where I lay my head
A G D A E7
And with your heart on fire will you have no desire to kiss me
Bm E7
And to hold me
[Verse 6]
A A7 F#m A7
If you can forget the good times we had
D Bm E7
If you think that the good times don't outweigh the bad

Then sign your name and I'll be on my way
Bm E7
I'll be on my way
