E                          B
I can see you’re slipping away from me
           E         G#m7                   A  F#m
And you’re so afraid I’ll plead with you to stay
             G#m7   A                    E    B
I’m gonna be strong I'll let you go your way
E
Love is gone
                    B
There’s no sense in holding on
         E        G#m7                    A   F#m
And your pity now would be than I could  bare
             G#m7    A                         E
I’m gonna be strong  I'll pretend that I don’t care
B                       A                  B
I’m gonna be strong and stand as tall as I can
B                       A                     D              B  E 
I’m gonna be strong and let you run along and take it like a man

             G#m    A                    E    
I'm gonna be strong I'll let you go your way
B                       A                  B
I'm gonna be strong and stand as tall as I can
B                       A                    D              B   
I'm gonna be strong and let you go along and take it like a man
         E
When you say it’s the end 
     A
I’ll hand you a line
E
I’ll smile and say 
          A 
Don’t you worry I’m fine
E                F#m          G#m       A           B 
And you’ll never know darling after you kiss me goodbye
                        E   A   E   A    E
How I’ll break down and cry cry cry
