After You’ve Gone

1918

[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]
C                          D       G
Don't you remember how you used to
C                          D       G
You'd always love me in the same old way?
E             Am   E  Am
But know it's ve - ry strange
D               G   D   G
That you should e - ver change
C                          D       G
Sometimes I think someone has won your heart
C            F
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
