It was a [G#7] miserable feeling, now babe, [F#7] A feeling I do des[C#]pise. [B] [Bb] [A] [G#] I have to [C#] leave, leave you baby, because you know you done me wrong. I have to [F#7] leave you baby, because you know you done me [C#] wrong. I'm gonna [G#7] pack up and leave you darling [F#7] And break up my happy [C#] home. [B] [Bb] [A] [G#] I'm gonna [C#] leave you baby, I'm gonna leave you all alone. I'm gonna [F#7] leave you baby, I'm gonna leave you all a[C#]lone. I'm gonna [G#7] pack up and leave you darling, [F#7] Because you know you done me [C#] wrong. [B] [Bb] [A] [G#]
