Verse
              E7
As far as all my friends can tell
I took her leaving well.....
       A
That's kinda right
      E7
Cause when I'm out with them
                       A
I don't let her memory rule the nite
        D                E
For the most part I'm ok
    D                   E
But I still miss her in
              A
A Round About Way
Chorus
  E7                                A
Around A-bout the time that midnite rolls around
      E7                                    A
Thats around a-bout the time my tears start fallin down
            B
Cause she's not around
  D
I come UNWOUND
    B
And my heart breaks
      E7
Yeah, I still miss her in

I know longer sit alone
For hours by the phone

Wishin she would call
    E7
And just the other day
I took her smilin face
     A
Down off my walls
     D                   E
I've come a long long way

Bm        A     A  G
Sometimes new beginning
   Em                    A
Is found in an ole friend
       Em?                        F#m
But If (Em?)I'm ever gonna a mend
                  G
This broken heart
                A                        D
You look like a real good place to start
(same chords as above)
There've been times, when you and him
Just couldn't get along.
I'd hear your knock, then let you in
Be your shoulder to cry on.
Now he's finally left you
I find you in my arms
(play Chorus)
(play last 3 lines of Chorus)
