Chicago

^{A F#m D E}
Verse:
Well, you c ^A alled me up this morning
Told me 'bout the ^F#m new love you found
Said, "I'm ^D happy for you.
I'm really ^E happy for you."
Found someone else,
I guess I won't be coming 'round
I guess it's over, baby
It's really over, baby, woooh
Pre-chorus:
^F#m And from what you're saying
I know you've ^A gotten over me
^C#7 It'll never be the ^F#m way it ^A used to ^E be
^Bm So if it's gotta be this ^E way
^Bm Don't worry, baby,
I can ^E take the news okay
Chorus:
But if you ^A see me walking by,
And the ^D tears are in my eyes,
Look a ^A way, ^D baby, look a ^E way.
If we meet ^A on the street some day,
And I ^D don't know what to say,
Look a ^A way, ^D baby, look a ^E way.
Don't ^F#m look at me
I ^D don't want you to ^E see me this ^A way.
(Intro)
Verse:
When we both agreed as lovers
We were better off as friends
That's how it had to be
Yeah, that's how it had to be
I tell you I'm fine,
But sometimes I just pretend
Wish you were holding me,
Wish you were still holding me, oooh
Prechorus:
I just never thought
That I would be replaced so soon
I wasn't prepared
To hear those words from you
I know I wanted to be free
Yeah, baby this is how we wanted it to be
Chorus:
But if you ^A see me walking by,
And the ^D tears are in my eyes,
Look a ^A way, ^D baby, look a ^E way.
And if we meet ^A on the street some day,
And I ^D don't know what to say,
Look a ^A way, ^D baby, look a ^E way.
Don't ^F#m look at me
I ^D don't want you to s ^E ee me th ^A is way.
(Solo in B: F#m E F#m B E F#)
Chorus:
If you ^B see me walking by,
And the ^E tears are in my eyes,
Look a ^B way, ^E baby, look a ^F# way.
And if we meet ^B on the street some day,
And I ^E don't know what to say,
Look a ^B way, ^E baby, look a ^F# way.
Don't ^G#m look at me
I ^E don't want you to s ^F# ee me (th ^B is way.)
If you ^B see me walking by,
And the tears are in my eyes,
Look away, baby, look away.
Don't look at me
I don't want you to see me (this way.)
Look Away Chicago
