[Verse 1]
Well, I woke up in the night
And I fumbled for the light
When I turned it on and rubbed my sleepy eyes
Well, I didn't see your face
On the pillow in it's place
Was a little note with just two words, "Good-bye"

[Verse 2]
Only seemed a little strange
Knowin' ev'rything has changed
I can't seem to make the coffee like you do
Breakfast table's kinda bare
With nobody in your chair
But I guess I'll make it, other people do

[Chorus]
And my friends all say I'm better off without you
And behind my back they laugh and talk about you
What my friend's say may be right
But I'll take you back tonight
There's a right way, there's a wrong way and there's my way

[Verse 3]
I was kind of late for work
Popped a button on my shirt
And I couldn't find a needle anywhere
Finally found one on the shelf
And I sewed it on myself
It fell off as I was walkin' down the stair
[Instrumental Break]
Ah!

[Verse 4]
When the shop was finally closed
Went to where we used to go
Had to find out if someone knew where you were
The bartender's name is Fred
And the first thing said that he said
"I'll buy you a drink for bein' rid of her"

[Chorus]
And my friends all say I'm much better off without you
Oh, behind my back they laugh and talk about you
What my friends say may be right
But I'll take you back tonight
There's a right way, there's a wrong way and there's my way

[Outro]
Oh!

Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
