I LOOKED AWAY- Derek and the Dominos

C  G  F  C  G  C  G  F

C            Dm  G7            E   E7 Am G   F
She took my hand and tried to make me understand
                 D7/F#    G    D7  G7
That she would always be there
C             Dm  G7             E   E7  Am G F
But I looked away then she ran away from me today
             D/F#  G
I'm such a lonely man

CHORUS #1:
E Am               Bb        Fm9
   It came as no surprise to me
Am                          Bb  Fm9
That she'd leave me here in misery
 Am                  Bb    Fm9
It seemed like only yesterday
 Bb        Fm9 Bb         Fm9 Bb Fm9 C
She made a vow she'd never run     away

REPEAT FIRST VERSE

CHORUS #2:
And if it seemed a sin
To love another man's woman, babe
I guess I'll keep on sinning
Loving her ohh till my very last day

(FIRST PART OF VERSE WITHOUT WORDS)

But I looked away and she ran away from me today
I'm such a lonely man
