C G Am /g
Well, it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
F C G
Iff'n you don't know by now
C G Am /g
An' it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
D7/f# G (G6-G7)
It'll never do somehow
C C7
When your rooster crows at the break of dawn
F D7/f#
Look out your window and I'll be gone
C G Am /g F
You're the reason I'm trav'lin' on
C G C
But don't think twice, it's alright
C G Am /g
An' it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
F C G
The light I never knowed
C G Am /g
An' it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
D7/f# G (G6-G7)
I'm on the dark side of the road
C C7
Still I wish there was somethin' you would do or say
F D7/f#
To try and make me change my mind and stay
C G Am /g F
We never did too much talkin' anyway
C G C
But don't think twice, it's alright
C G Am /g
So it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal
F C G
Like you never done before
C G Am /g
An' it ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal
D7/f# G (G6-G7)
I can't hear you anymore
C C7
I'm a-thinkin' and a-wond'rin' walkin' down the road
F D7/f#
I once loved a woman, a child I'm told
C G Am /g F
I give her my heart but she wanted my soul
C G C
But don't think twice, it's alright
C G Am /g
So long, honey babe
F C G
Where I'm bound, I can't tell
C G Am /g
Goodbye is too good a word, babe
D7/f# G (G6-G7)
So I'll just say fare thee well
C C7
I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind
F D7/f#
You could have done better but I don't mind
C G Am /g F
You just kinda wasted my precious time
C G C
But don't think twice, it's alright
Enjoy!
