Well, I'm a-writing a song about you

A true song as real as my tears
D
But you've no need to fear it,

'cause no one will hear it,

'cause sad songs and waltzes aren't selling this year
I'll tell all about how you cheated I'd like all the world to hear I'd like to get even With you 'cause you're leavin' But sad songs and waltzes aren't selling this year

It's a good thing that I'm not a star

No one will play it

For sad songs and waltzes aren't selling this year
