[Intro]
G Cadd9 Dadd4
G Cadd9 Dadd4
[Verse 1]
G Cadd9 Dadd4 G Cadd9 Dadd4
Standing at the door of the Pink Flamingo crying in the rain
G Cadd9 Dadd4 G Cadd9 Dadd4
It was a kind of so-so love and I'm going to make sure it doesn't happen again
G Cadd9 Dadd4 G Cadd9 Dadd4
You and I had to be the standing joke of the year
G Cadd9 Dadd4 G Cadd9 Dadd4
You were a runaround, a lost and found and not for me, I feel
[Chorus]
Em G Bm Cadd9 Dadd4
Take your hands off me, hee_____ey
Em G Bm Cadd9 Dadd4
I don't belong to you, you see_______
Em G Bm Cadd9 Dadd4
Take a look in my face for the last time
Em G
I never knew you, you never knew me
Bm Cadd9 Dadd4
Say hello, goodbye
G Cadd9 Dadd4 G Cadd9 Dadd4
Say hello and wave goodbye________
[Verse 2]
G Cadd9 Dadd4
We tried to make it work, you in a cocktail skirt
G Cadd9 Dadd4
And me in a suit, but it just wasn't me
G Cadd9 Dadd4 G Cadd9 Dadd4
You're used to wearing less, and now you're life's a mess so insecure you see
G
Well I've put up with all the scenes
Cadd9 Dadd4 G Cadd9 Dadd4
and this is one scene that's going to be played my way
[Chorus]
Em G Bm Cadd9 Dadd4
Take your hands off me, hee_____ey
Em G Bm Cadd9 Dadd4
I don't belong to you, you see_______
Em G Bm Cadd9 Dadd4
Take a look in my face for the last time
Em G
I never knew you, you never knew me
Bm Cadd9 Dadd4
Say hello, goodbye
G Cadd9 Dadd4 G Cadd9 Dadd4
Say hello and wave goodbye________
G Cadd9 Dadd4 G Cadd9 Dadd4
Say hello and wave goodbye________
[Verse 3]
G Cadd9 Dadd4 G Cadd9 Dadd4
Under the deep red lights I can see the makeup sliding down
G Cadd9 Dadd4
Well hey little girl you will always make up
G Cadd9 Dadd4
So take off that unbecoming frown
G Cadd9 Dadd4 G Cadd9 Dadd4
As for me, well, I'll find someone who's not going cheap in the sales
G Cadd9 Dadd4
A nice little housewife who'll give me the steady life
G Cadd9 Dadd4
And not keep going off the rails
[Chorus]
Em G Bm Cadd9 Dadd4
Take your hands off me, hee_____ey
Em G Bm Cadd9 Dadd4
I don't belong to you, you see_______
Em G Bm Cadd9 Dadd4
Take a look in my face for the last time
Em G
I never knew you, you never knew me
Bm Cadd9 Dadd4
Say hello, goodbye
G Cadd9 Dadd4 G Cadd9 Dadd4
Say hello and wave goodbye________
G Cadd9 Dadd4 G Cadd9 Dadd4
Say hello and wave goodbye________
G Cadd9 Dadd4 G Cadd9 Dadd4
Say hello and wave goodbye________

On the G, Cadd9, and the Dadd11, the B string is played open. In the verse there is a F# Bass note (2xxxxx) that is played right before going to the Cadd9.
Also there is a C (x32010) in the chorus. The chorus is played Em, G, Bm, C, D.

The other way to play this is to play a F#/D between the G and Cadd9. It's a classic passing chord between these two chords. The fingering is relatively easy (2 0 0 2 3 3) and it really fits with the other chords in this song.
