 Intro (hold)  x2
All  she wrote  was a goodbye letter  "It's  over for  us, to tell  you the truth
I've  met this person in  a disco He's  really special,  reminds  me of you
"Now  you can mix  in those swinging circles Single bars  and gay  cafes
With  pickup lines  to impress  young schoolgirls  And big  Australian barmaids"
That's all  she wrote On  the back  of that old  brown envelope
A  few killer lines  to get  my goat  That's all she wrote
ooh o o o ooh o
All  she wrote  on that goodbye letter  "It's over for  us, to tell  you the truth
And  my new man  is a vegetarian  He laughs a lot, not  like you"
Picked  up one  of her old  love letters  "You are  such a caring man"
Such  a change  from that cold,  bitter scam  Of what I was, and what I am
 That's all  she wrote On  the back  of that old  brown envelope
A  few killer lines  to get  my goat  That's all she wrote
"Did  you ever really love me  ? Did you ever really care?
Now  you're free to live your fantasy  And I'm not there
To  cramp your style and blow your cover  Now you're free to take your lover
 ://  ://: x4
 To titty bars and low life clubs" o o o o
 All she wrote is a goodbye letter "It's over for us, to tell you the truth
 I've met this person in a disco He's really special, reminds me of you
 "So don't pretend to be a new man Be chauvinistic, that's your way
 Now you're free to make your play For that big Australian barmaid
 (Big Australian barmaid) Big Australian barmaid"
 That's all she wrote On the back of that old brown envelope
 A few killer lines in that suicide note That's all she wrote
