Artist Name

From: Harlan L Thompson 

I DON'T WANT TO SPOIL THE PARTY- The Beatles

          C
I don't want to spoil the party so I'll go
                                   G
I would hate my disappointment to show
          Am            E       Dm7          G7
There's nothing for me here so I will disappear
         C                 Bb                  C
If she turns up while I'm gone please let me know 

I've had a drink or two and I don't care
there's no fun in what I do if she's not there
I wonder what went wrong I've waited far too long
I think I'll take a walk and look for her 

CHORUS:
          C
Though tonight she's made me sad
Am7  D7  F    G
I still love her
      C
If I find her I'll be glad
Am7 D7    F   G
I still love her 

I don't want to spoil the party so I'll go
I would hate my disappointment to show
There's nothing for me here so I will disappear
If she turns up while I'm gone please let me know ...SOLO, CHORUS

I've had a drink or two and I don't care
there's no fun in what I do if she's not there
I wonder what went wrong I've waited far too long
I think I'll take a walk and look for her
