[Chorus 1]
[F] After you've gone, [F7] and left me cryin'
[C] After you've gone, [A] there's no denyin'
[D] You'll feel blue, [G] you'll feel sad
[C] You'll miss the dearest pal you ever had.
[F] There'll come a time, [F7] now don't forget it
[C] There'll come a time, [A] when you'll regret it
[Dm] Oh [A] babe [Dm] think what you're doin'
[C] You know my [E] love for you will [Am] drive me to [B7] ruin
[C] After you've gone, [G] after you've gone [C] away
Someday when you are lonely
Your heart will break like mine and you'll want me only
[Verse 2]

tempted you away
F#m C A
But let me warn you, though we're miles apart
D G C
You'll regret it some day
[Chorus 2]
[F] After you've gone, [Fm] after the break up
[C] After you've gone, [A] you're gonna wake up
[D] And you will find that [G] you were blind
[C] To let somebody come and change your mind
[F] After the years [Fm] we've been together
The [C] joy and the tears, [A] all kind of weather
[Dm] Some day [A] when you're down-[Dm]-hearted
[C] You'll long to [E] be with me right [Am] back where you [B] started
[C] After you've gone, [G] after you've gone [C] away
