Intro

Verse

It's not the first time

That I've had the sense that something's wrong

I'm old enough to know

That things don't always work out like they should

I know you're trying hard

To break it gently to me, now

But there's no easy way

To tell it like it is, o baby...

Chorus

I don't want to hear anymore

You don't need to tell me it's over

I've been here before

Verse

I've seen that look before

I know it well; it comes as no surprise

You've been avoiding me

But now you want to talk it over

Before you take my hand

And tell me softly in a whisper

There's no need to explain

I've read the book; I know how this all ends

Chorus

I don't want to hear anymore

You don't need to tell me it's over

I've been here before

I won't ask you to stay

I won't stand in your way

Look me right in the eyes

Let me walk away with my head high

Solo

If there's some other guy

I don't need to know why

Chorus

But I don't want to hear anymore

You don't need to tell me it's over

I've been here before

I won't ask you to stay

I won't stand in your way

And I don't want to hear anymore

No, no, baby

Bb Dm--- C--- F---

I don't want to hear anymore
