Intro:

Gm Gm/maj7 Gm7 Gm/maj7 [Em]
xx64xx xx54xx xx44xx xx54xx
Verse 1:
Gm Cm [Em Am]
I hate to say it but I told you so
Gm Cm [Em Am]
Don`t mind my preaching to you
Gm Cm B [Em Am G]
I said don`t trust him, baby, now you know
E A B E [C F G C]
You don`t learn everything there is to know in school
Wouldn`t believe me when I gave advice
I said that he was a tease
If you want help you better ask me nice
So be sincere, convince me with a pretty please
Chorus:
F B [D G]
Laugh Laugh, I thought I`d die
E A [C F]
It seemed so funny to me,
D G [Bb Eb]
Laugh Laugh, you met a guy
C B [Ab G]
who taught you how it feels to be
E A E A E A E A [C F C F]
Lonely, oh so lonely
Verse 2:
Don`t think I`m being funny when I say
You got just what you deserve
I can`t help feeling you found out today
You thought you were too good you had a lot of nerve
Won`t say I`m sorry for the things I said
I`m glad he packed up to go
You kept on bragging he was yours instead
Found you don`t know everything there is to know
[repeat chorus]
Instrumental break [play 2X]:
G Gmaj7 G7 Gmaj7 [E]
xx65xx xx55xx xx45xx xx55xx
Verse 3:
Before I go I`d like to say one thing
Don`t close your ears to me
Take my advice and you`ll find out that being
Just another girl won`t cause you misery
You say you can get any boy at your call
Don`t be so smug or else
You`ll find you can`t get any boy at all
You`ll wind up an old lady sitting on the shelf
[repeat chorus]
Coda (original 45 fades out; most CD reissues end cold on E):
E A E A E A E A [C F C F]
Lonely, oh so lonely
