D
Well, I heard it from confidential sources
                 G
That you've been thinking 'bout losing my name
                                      D
And you've been dialin' some unlisted number
        A
At some Memphis, Tennessee exchange
           D
Well, your plannin' on headin' down the highway
     G
This time you're going for good
                                        D                
Well, honey don't think twice 'bout the pain you leave behind
     A                      D
Just do me one favor if you would

[Chorus]
D         G                      D
Don't say goodbye, just slam the door
           A                             D
Don't apologize, that only makes it hurt more
              G                      D
All your sympathy, will only make me cry
       A                                      D
So get out, go on, get gone and don't say goodbye

[Verse 2]
N.C.               
Now you were hoping you could break it to me gently
         G                 D       G
You were thinkin' we could part as friends
                               D
And if I'd only try and remain civil
    A
I'd see it your way in the end
             D
Well, pardon me while I beg to differ
                                             G
'Cause I'm the one who's gotta live with the pain
                                      D
And when you're out on the town, I'll still be broke down
          A                       D
Don't you bother with tryin' to explain

[Chorus]
D         G                      D
Don't say goodbye, just slam the door
           A                             D
Don't apologize, that only makes it hurt more
              G                      D
All your sympathy, will only make me cry
       A                                      D
So get out, go on, get gone and don't say goodbye

[Bridge]
Bb
I don't need to have all the reasons numbered
A                                             G
You can save those condolences for some other guy
                 A
Baby, some other time

[Chorus]
D         G                      D
Don't say goodbye, just slam the door
           A                             D
Don't apologize, that only makes it hurt more
              G                      D
All your sympathy, will only make me cry
       A                                      D
So get out, go on, get gone and don't say goodbye 
          A                                  D
Yeah, get out, go on, get gone and don't say goodbye
