Transcribed by Joe Schwab ([email protected]) Straight strumming is best for this song. The verse sounds good with a little arpeggiation, but this is a pretty straightforward tune. Kinda doo-wop like (real Frankie Vallie stuff, here). {Prologue} A year ago today Was when you went away But now you come back knocking on my door And you say you're back to stay, but I say {Chorus 1} Go cry on somebody else's shoulder I'm somewhat wiser now And one whole year older I sure don't need you now I don't love you anymore {Chorus 2} You cheated me baby And told some dirty lies about me Fooled around with all those other guys That's why I had to set you free I sure don't need you now I don't love you anymore {Verse} A year ago today You went away And now you come back crying, crying darling to me I don't need you No I don't love you anymore So go lean on, go cry, on somebody else's door {chorus 1} Go ahead and cry Go ahead and let the tears fall out oy your eyes Let 'em fall on your dress Who cares if it makes a mess I gave you my high school ring At the rootbeer stand We had a teenage love, baby I thought it was sharp it was really so grand, but {chorus 2} (change line from "That's why I had to set you free" to "That's why I had to get my khaki's pressed") repeat chorus chords and fade while blubbering about how much you love this woman.
