Last night I had too much to drink 
(G) 
Sitting in a club with so many fools 
(C) 
Playing to rules 
(F)                                          (Am) 
Trying to impress but feeling rather empty 
(F)             (C) 
I had another drink 
Drink - a - drink - a - drink - a - drink 
 
(Emadd9) 
What a way to spend that evening 
(G) 
They all turn up with their friends 
(C) 
Playing the game 
(F)                                  (Am) 
But in the scene I should have been 
(F)    (C) 
Far away 
Away - away - away - away - away 
 
(B)   (B) flat     (A)    (A) flat   (G)         (G) flat  (F)     (E) 
Getting up, I feel as if I‘m remembering this scene before 
(C)                     (F) 
I open the door to an empty room 
(D)               (D) sus4  (D) 
Then I forget

The telephone rings and someone speaks 
(G) 
She would very much like to go 
(C) 
Out to a show 
(F)                                            (Am) 
So what can I do - I can‘t think what to say 
(F)                   (C) 
She sees through anyway 
Away - away - away - away - away 
 
 
(Emadd9) 
Out of the front door I go 
(G) 
Traffic‘s moving rather slow 
(C) 
Arriving late, 
(F)                                 (Am) 
There she waits looking very angry, 
(F)                   (C) 
As cross as she can be 
 
Be - a - be - a - be - a - be - a - be

Getting up, I feel as if I‘m remembering this scene before 
 
(C)                     (F) 
I open the door to an empty room 
(D)               (D) sus4  (D)
