C G
You don't have to paint me a picture
C G
The handwritin's on the wall
C G
It's very plain to see that you don't love me
C D7 G
No, you never loved me at all
Verse 2:
You've been out with other fellas
You think that I don't know
Well, you don't have to paint a rose on me
'Cause I knew it long ago
CHORUS:
C Em Am
I have tried to make excuses for the things you do
C D
I've tried to be fair in every way
C Em Am
It's no use pretendin' that you haven't been untrue
D
It's over now, so I'll be on my way
Verse 3:
I don't need a fortuneteller
I don't need a crystal ball
It's very plain to see that you don't love me
No, you never loved me at all
