For Lovin’ Me --- Gordon Lightfoot

 

[D7]That’s what you get for lovin’ [G]me.
[D7]
That’s what you get for lovin’ [Em]me.[D]
[G]
Well everything you had is [Em]gone, as you can [A7]see.
[D7]
That’s what you get for lovin’ [G]me.
 

[D7]I ain’t the kind to hang a-[G]round
[D7]
With any new love that I’ve [Em]fou-[D]ound.
[G]
Movin’ is my stock in [Em]trade; I’m movin’ [A7]on.
[D7]
I won’t think of you when I’m [G]gone.
 

[D7]So don’t you shed a tear for [G]me.
[D7]
I ain’t the love you thought I’d [Em]be.[D]
[G]
I got a hundred more like [Em]you, so don’t be [A7]blue.
[D7]
I’ll have a thousand ‘fore I’m [G]through.
 

[D7]Now there you go, you’re cryin’ a-[G]gain.
[D7]
Now there you go, you’re cryin’ a-[Em]gain.[D]
[G]
But then some day when your poor [Em]heart is on the [A7]mend,
[D7]
I might just pass this way a-[G]gain.
 

[D7]That’s what you get for lovin’ [G]me.
[D7]
That’s what you get for lovin’ [Em]me.[D]
[G]
Well everything you had is [Em]gone, as you can [A7]see.
[D7]
That’s what you get for lovin’ [G]me.
