[Verse 1]
       Am  G         C                     G                C
I went out late last night and through the door saw burning light.
           Am G           C          G             C
It was my love from long ago and she had me in her sights.

[Chorus]
           F   C            F C          G              C
Said honey please, leave me be, stay the hell away from me,
            Am G       C            G                              C
you were my love long ago but I'm a new man now, honey, you should know.

[Verse 2]
         Am  G      C               G          C
Well she cried me a river, yea, she cried me a lake
         Am G          C              G                    C
when she cried me that ocean I cried, oh, what the hell to say?

[Chorus]
      F   C            F C          G              C
Honey please, leave me be, stay the hell away from me,
            Am G            C            G                             C
You were my love from long ago but I'm a new man now, honey you should know.

[Chorus]
      F   C            F C          G              C
Honey please, leave me be, stay the hell away from me,
            Am G            C            G                             C
You were my love from long ago but I'm a new man now, honey you should know.

Honey please, won't leave me be, stay the hell away from me,
            Am G            C            G                             C     C     C     C
You were my love from long ago but I'm a new man now, honey you should know.
