         G
I don't want to spoil the party so I'll go,
                                    D
I would hate my disappointment to show,
        Em              B7     Am           D
There's nothing for me here so I will disappear,
        G                  F                   G
If she turns up while I'm gone please let me know.

I've had a drink or two and I don't care,
There's no fun in what I do if she's not there,
I wonder what went wrong I've waited far too long,
I think I'll take a walk and look for her.

Chorus:
          G
Though tonight she's made me sad,
Em  A    C    D
I still love her,
If I find her I'll be glad,
I still love her.

I don't want to spoil the party so I'll go,
I would hate my disappointment to show,
There's nothing for me here so I will disappear,
If she turns up while I'm gone please let me know.

Chorus

I've had a drink or two and I don't care,
There's no fun in what I do if she's not there,
I wonder what went wrong I've waited far too long,
I think I'll take a walk and look for her.
