Just Because chords by John Lennon

Intro: G G7 C D D7 G

('Ah, remember this? Why, I must have been thirteen
when this came out - or was it fourteen? Or was it twenty-two?
I could have been twelve, actually...')

G         G7        C
Just because you left and said goodbye
D         D7        G
Do you think that I will sit and cry
      G7         C
Even if my heart should tell me so
D        D7      G
Darling I would rather let you go

Just because I want someone who's kind
With a heart that's good and pure as mine
But maybe I am asking far too much
Darling, please don't ever break my heart

       C
I know you think you're smart
               D       D7
Just runnin' around breaking lover's hearts

Just because you left and said goodbye - hey!
Do you think that I will sit and cry
Even if my heart should tell me so
Darling I would rather let you go

('This is Dr. Winston O'Boogie saying goodnight from Record
Plant East, New York... We hope you had a swell time....
Everybody here says 'hi'....'goodbye!'')

Just because you left and said goodbye
Do you think that I will sit and cry
Even if my heart should tell me so
Darling I would rather let you go
