I Looked Away

I LOOKED AWAY
Eric Clapton

Intro   |: C G F C G :|


C           D7       G7       E       Am G   F
She took my hand and tried to make me un-der-stand
D7        G      D G
That she would always be there
C             D7  G7            E        Am G F
But I looked away and she ran away from me today
D7     G    Em Am
I'm such a lonely man

Am            F           Fm7
It came as no surprise to me
Am                     F   Fm7
That she'd leave me in misery
Am            F           Fm7
Seemed like only yesterday
Fm7        Fm6      Fm7         Fm6 C
She made a vow that she'd never go away

C           D7       G7       E       Am G   F
She took my hand and tried to make me un-der-stand
D7        G      D G
That she would always be there
C             D7  G7             E        Am G F
But I looked away and she ran away from me today
D7     G    Em Am
I'm such a lonely man

Am        F        Fm7
And if it seemed a sin
Am       F            Fm7
To love another man's woman
Am           F       Fm7
I guess I'll keep on sinnin'
Fm7   Fm6 Fm7  Fm6               F
Lovin her      till my very last day

I'm such a lonely man
