[Verse 1]
C                          D       G
Now won't you listen honey while I say
C                          D       G
How could you tell me that you're going away?
E              Am E    Am
Don't say that we must part
D                G D    G
Don't break your baby's heart
C                                 D    G
You know I've loved you for these many years
C                   F
Loved you night and day
F#m                     C      A
Oh honey baby can't you see my tears
    D      G       C
Now listen while I say
 
[Chorus 1]
F                  Fm
After you've gone,    and left me cryin'
C                  A
After you've gone,    there's no denyin'
D                 G
You'll feel blue, you'll feel sad
C
You'll miss the bestest pal you've ever had
F                      Fm
There'll come a time,     now don't forget it
C                      A
There'll come a time,    when you'll regret it
Dm A    Dm
Oh babe think what you're doin'
C           E                 Am          B
You know my love for you will drive me to ruin
C                  G                  C
After you've gone, after you've gone away
 
[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                 Fm
After you've gone,    after the break up
C                  A
After you've gone,    you're gonna wake up
D                      G
And you will find that you were blind
C
To let somebody come and change your mind
F              Fm
After the years     we've been together
    C                 A
The joy and the tears,    all kind of weather
Dm   A   Dm
Some day when you're down-hearted
C              E                Am             B
You'll long to be with me right back where you started
C                  G                  C
After you've gone, after you've gone away
