[Verse 1]
Am                         C             G     D
Hey girl, is he everything you wanted in a man?
                  Am         
You know I gave you the world
C                              G   D
You had me in the palm of your hand
                 Am       
So why your love went away
C                           G  D
I just can't seem to understand
                    Am        
Thought it was me and you babe
C                      G   
Me and you until at the end
                    D  
But I guess I was wrong

[Refrain]
Am                          
Don't want to think about it
C                          
Don't want to talk about it
G                        
I'm just so sick about it
D                               Am
Can't believe it's ending this way
Just so confused about it
C                         
Feeling the blues about it
G                         
I just can't do without ya
D                     Am
Tell me, is this fair?

[Bridge]
    C                        G         
Is this the way it's really going down?
    D                   Am 
Is this how we say goodbye?
 C                               G         
Should've known better when you came around
    D                          Am
That you were gonna make me cry
C                                    G        
It's breaking my heart to watch you run around
D                                     Am
'Cause I know that you're livin' a lie
C                            G             D     
That's okay baby, 'cause in time you will find...

[Chorus]
Am                                    C   
What goes around, goes around, goes around
                   G       D 
Comes all the way back around
Am                                    C   
What goes around, goes around, goes around
                   G       D 
Comes all the way back around
Am                                    C   
What goes around, goes around, goes around
                   G       D 
Comes all the way back around
Am                                    C   
What goes around, goes around, goes around
                   G       D       
Comes all the way back around, yeah

[Verse 2]
     Am        C                           G    D
Now girl, I remember everything that you claimed
                  Am                
You said that you were movin' on now
     C                     G  D
And maybe I should do the same
                       Am    
The funny thing about that is
       C                    G  D
I was ready to give you my name
                           Am 
Thought it was me and you baby
     C                    G  
And now it's all just a shame
                    D  
And I guess I was wrong

[Refrain]
Am

Don't want to talk about it

[Verse]
C                          
You spend your nights alone
D                      
And he never comes home
Em                         
And every time you call him
Em                       
All you get's a busy tone
C                    
I heard you found out
D                     
That he's doing to you
Em                
What you did to me
Em                        
Ain't that the way it goes
C               
You cheated girl
D                   
My heart bleeds girl
Em                       
So it goes without saying
Em                           
that you left me feeling hurt
C                  
Just a classic case
D         
A scenario
Em                 
Tale as old as time
Em                            
Girl you got what you deserved
C                        
And now you want somebody
D                        
To cure the lonely nights
Em                       
You wish you had somebody
Em                               
That could come and make it right
C                         
But girl, I ain't somebody
D                     
With a lot of sympathy
Em             
You'll see, see
Em
Em                       C          
(What goes around comes back around)
             D        Em
I thought I told ya, hey
Em                       C          
(What goes around comes back around)
             D        Em
I thought I told ya, hey
Em                       C          
(What goes around comes back around)
             D        Em
I thought I told ya, hey
Em                       C          
(What goes around comes back around)
             D        Em
I thought I told ya, hey
