Spoken:
 
A friend of mine told me 

That you were down here last night

I almost called him a liar but I see he was right

Yeah he was right

G
I'm over my anger but that's about all
     C                                 G
It's hard to recover from that kind of fall

A fool never knows when to give up
    A7                     D7
For years I remember those long nights of love

G                      C
But I don't go back anymore
   D7                              C           G
My heart's locked it's windows and bolted it's door
                                  G7           C
It's like trying to hold back the sea from the shore
G             D7      G
No I don't go back anymore


You're still just as pretty as you were back then
   C                          G
If I didn't know you I'd fall again

So don't smile and tell me that you still care
      A7                     D7
Don't stir up my feelings it just isn't fair

repeat #3

G             D7      G
No I don't go back anymore

Spoken:
 
A friend of mine told me you might be down here tonight
