Repeat this progression throughout the song.
DViolets are blue, roses are red
I Gwant you to leave and I mean what I said
The Djury's verdict is A7in and you've crossed the Dline.
DSpare me the drama and your crocodile tears
GCocaine, vodka and a half dozen beers
DThere's no excuse for the A7way you acted last Dnight
Chorus
So Ggo, pack your bags, I'm not listeDning to you cry
There is no A7next time or another Bmintry D
So Ggo, pack your bags and find someDwhere else to cry
This is the A7last time that I'll say goodDbye
Well you Dbitch and complain as a means to an end
You Gdon't like my momma and you hate all my friends
Well Dhoney, I've got news for A7you, the feeling is Dshared
DThey say true love is golden but bruises are black
You Gthink that you are but you ain't coming back
You're a Dwalking, a cold lonely A7road, you ain't Dprepared
Chorus
Solo
DHere is a quarter, call someone who cares
Or Gbelieves that I accidently fell down the stairs
DOr the phone book that knocked me out A7cold just fell of the Dshelf
DWell I have a good job and I don't look too bad
And there are Gplenty of women who would be more than glad
To Dkeep me from sitting A7around feeling bad for Dmyself
Chorus x 2
