I bought a toothbrush, some toothpaste, a flannel for my face,
B7/D# Dm7
Pyjamas, a hairbrush, new shoes, and a case,
Am7 Em7 F/G
I said to my reflection, "Let's get out of this place--------!"
G PCast the chD7urch and the steeple, the lauFndry on the hill,
A G/D Gaug/D# Am7/E
Billboards and the buildings, memories of it still keep calling,
D Am/E F7/D# D D/C
And calling, but for - get it all, I know I will---!

Bm7/E A A/G
And now that you have gone, there's no other,

G CAt my beD7dside, empty pocket, a fFoot without a sock,
A G/D Gaug/D#
Your body gets much closer, I fumble for the clock,

I bought a novel, some perfume, a fortune all for you,
B7/D# Dm7
But it's not my concience that hates to be untrue,
I aAm7sked of my reflection, "TellEm7 me, what is there to F/Gdo-----'G&qCuot;
