Don't Say Goodbye: D Well I heard it from confidential sources G you've been thinking 'bout losing my name G D and you've been dialin' some unlisted number A at some Memphis, TN exchange D Well your plannin' on headin' down the highway G and this time you're going for good G A well honey don't think twice 'bout the pain you leave behind A D just do me one favor if you would G D Don't say goodbye, just slam the door A D Don't apologize, that only makes it hurt more G D all your sympathy, will only make me cry A D so get out, go on, get gone, and don't say goodbye D (HOLD D) Now you were hoping you could break it to me gently G you were thinkin' we could part as friends G D If I'd only try and remain civil A I'd see it your way in the end D Well pardon me if I beg to differ G 'cause I'm the one who's gotta live with the pain G D and when you're out on the town, I'll still be broke down A D don't you bother with tryin' to explain (chorus) BM I don't need to have all the reasons numbered A G You can save those condolences for some other guy A baby some other time (chorus)
