Lyrics
You're Gonna Miss Me
80 BPM
(Verse 1)
G D Em C
You thought you could leave, walk out that door,
Without a second glance, like we were nothing more.
But honey, you'll see when the nights grow long,
You're goin' to miss me when I'm gone.
(Chorus)
G D Em C
You're goin' to miss my laugh, my comforting embrace,
The tender love we shared, the smile on my face.
In your solo song, when the notes are wrong,
You're goin' to miss me when I'm gone.
(Verse 2)
G D Em C
You said you wanted freedom, a life of your own,
But you'll soon realize what it's like to be alone.
Without me by your side to hold you so strong,
You're goin' to miss me when I'm gone.
(Chorus)
G D Em C
You're goin' to miss our talks, our walks under the moon,
The way we danced together to our favorite tune.
When you wake in the night, without my dawn,
You're goin' to miss me when I'm gone.
(Bridge)
Am Em G D
I gave you all my love, but you threw it all away,
You'll understand the value when the skies turn grey.
When the memories hit you, like an old, sad song,
You're goin' to miss me when I'm gone.
(Chorus)
G D Em C
You're goin' to miss the way we used to be, the love we've known,
The warmth of my touch, the seeds of love we've sown.
But you made your choice, and I'll be moving on,
You're goin' to miss me when I'm gone.
(Outro)
G D Em C
So here's my goodbye, my final farewell song,
It won't be long now; you're goin' to miss me when I'm gone.
