"How Can I Miss You When You Won't Go Away?" -  Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks

     A7                             D
I've talked to your mother and I've talked to your dad

     A7                                D
They say they've tried but it's all in vain

     A7                            D  C7    B7
I've begged and I've pleaded, I've even got mad

E7                       A              Ab  
Now we must face it, you give me a pain


Chorus:
G                           D    
How can I miss you when you won't go away?

G                  D
I keep telling you day after day

G                         D      C7       B7
But you won't listen, you always stay and stay 

E7                          A7         D
How can I miss you when you won't go away?


Your never-ending presence really cramps my style
I dream that it won't always be the same
At first I was attracted, but after a while
Have you ever heard of the hard-to-get game?

repeat chorus,  instrumental break for a verse and chorus

Out of 3 billion people, why must it be me?
Why oh, why won't you cut me loose?
Just do me a favor and listen to my plea
I'm not the only chicken on the roost

repeat chorus
