    My lovely woman child, 

     - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -  Em

    I found you out running wild with someone new. 

      - - - - - - - - - - - Em  - - - - - - - - - - - -  G         A        D 

    You’ve been untrue, and everybody knows we’re through. 

 

     - - - - - - - - - - - - - -   G                                  D 

1. But I can’t say goodbye to you, no matter what you do,

C                          G

    my heart won’t let you go. 

                         C                        D                        G  

    Although I know you go with someone new, I think of you. 

 

                     C                           F 

    I think of how you kiss, your tenderness,

            D            - D7      G                                        C     - F

    with all of this,         I miss the way you say goodnight. 

 

    F

2.     Bittersweet your kisses, 

                                                                                                      Bb  - C

    when my heart still misses the way that things used to be. 

                F

    But I know you’re strong for other arms you long for, 

                                             Bb

    and you can never come back to me. 

 

Bb                                    - A                      Bb 

    Not just for yesterday,       tonight or tomorrow,

                  Dm            C                          F       - D - F            D

    ah, but forever, I’ll hear you say goodnight,              goodnight. 

G                               A               D

    Goodnight turned out to be a lie,

G                    A             G - D    

    and I can’t help it if I cr…..y.

             Em                             A                                D      - F - D  

    Goodnight, my love, sleep tight, my love, goodnight.
