Strum
D-DU-UDU
 It's killin'  me to write the word goodbye,
 I've wadded  up and tossed a thousand  tries.
We  both know the reason,
 There ain't nothing  to explain.
 But I  know that my leavin'
 Will spare  us both the pain.
 (Desiree)  I can't hold  you any longer.
 (Desiree)  You love his money  more  than me.
 And the taxi's  at the gate,
 I guess all  that's left to  say
 Is in teardrops  at the bottom  of the page
 'I love  you Desiree'.
 It'd be easier  to leave if I were mad,
 But it's hard  to lose the best you'll  ever have.
 And to write  this note to you,
 Was the hardest  thing to do.
 But not as hard  as bein' a poor boy
 Who can't afford  a girl like you
 God, I love you Desiree.
I  won't be around for your goodbye.
 Love his money more than me
I  won't be around for your goodbye.
 You love his money more than me.
 I won't be around for your goodbye.
 I was just a fool who couldn't see
 I won't be around for your goodbye
 Oh you love  his money, you love it more  than me.
