Intro

(piano only)
| G F | Em F | C/E Am | D Dsus4 D |
| G F | Em F | C/E Am | D Dsus4 D |

Verse 1

Feeling like I'm stuck in a hole,
Body and soul, while you're out of control  
Now I know why you have to go,
Well I think we both know that it had to be so  

Bridge 1

I've been trying not to cry,
When I'm in the public eye,
Stuck here with the shame and taking my share of the blame,
Am Am/G D/F# (Dsus4/F# D/F#)
While making some other plans that don't include you

Chorus

I get along, get along,
Without you very well, get along very well  
I get along, get along,
Without you very well, get along very well  

Interlude

| G F | Em F | C/E Am | D Dsus4 D |

Verse 2

Now I know you'd much rather be,
With rock royalty instead of someone like me  
Big boys are back and we need them, you said,
Think it was something you'd read
And it's stuck in your head  

Bridge 2

Even though, I don't suppose,
That's as far as it goes
You've got quite an appetite for being wronged and in the right,
Am Am/G D/F# (Dsus4/F# D/F#)
Well, from now on it won't affect me

Chorus

I get along, get along,
Without you very well, get along very well  
I get along, get along,
Without you very well, get along very well  

Middle 8

The morning after the night before,
I'd been alerted to your lies,
I phoned you up, the calls were all diverted
Took a long time to track you down,
Even then you were defiant,
"It's not what you think it is" you said,
And proceeded to deny it

Verse 3

So I lost my patience at last,
And it happened so fast, you belong in the past  

Bridge 3

I've been trying not to cry,
When I'm in the public eye,
Stuck here with the shame and taking my share of the blame,
Am Am/G D/F# (Dsus4/F# D/F#)
While making some other plans that don't include you

Chorus

I get along, get along,
Without you very well, get along very well  
I get along, get along,
Without you very well, get along very well  

Chorus

I get along, get along,
Without you very well, get along very well  
I get along, get along,
Without you very well, get along very well
