[Verse 1]
Eb F
It's not the first time that I
Gm
Had the sense that somethin's wrong
Eb F
I'm old enough to know
Gm F Eb
That things don't always work out like they should
[Verse 2]
Eb D7
I know you're tryin' hard
Gm
To break it gently to me now
C
But there's no easy way
Eb F
To tell it like it is so, baby
[Chorus]
A# Dm Gm Eb
I don't want to hear anymore
A# Dm Gm F
You don't need to tell me it's over
Eb D7
I've been here before
[Verse 3]
Eb F
I've seen that look before
Gm F Eb
I know it well, it comes as no surprise
Eb F
You've been avoidin' me
Gm
But now you want to talk it over
[Verse 4]
Eb F
Before you take my hand
Gm
And tell me softly in a whisper
Eb C
There's no need to explain
Eb F A#
I've read the book, I know how this all ends
[Chorus]
A# Dm Gm Eb
I don't want to hear anymore

You don't need to tell me it's over

I've been here before

I won't ask you to stay

I won't stand in your way

Look me right in the eye

Let me walk away with my head high

If there's some other guy
Eb F
I don't need to know why

But I don't want to hear anymore

You don't need to tell me it's over

I've been here before
