DM7     Fdim          Em7      A7+5       A7
I can't show my face, can't go an - y - place,

Am7                 D7    GM7      C9     CM7
Peo - ple stop and stare, it's so hard to bear.

DM7       Bm7-5     DM7       C7  B7
Ev' - ry - bod - y knows you left me...

It's the talk of the town.


DM7        Fdim          Em7      A7+5     A7
Ev' - ry - time we meet, my heart skips a beat;

Am7               D7    GM7         C9     CM7
We don't stop to speak, though it's just a week.

DM7       Bm7-5     DM7       C7  B7
Ev' - ry - bod - y knows you left me...

E7       A7-9   A7+5  D     Bm7
It's the talk of the town.

We sent out in - vi - ta - tions to friends and re - la - tions

An - noun - cing our wed - ding day;

Friends and re - la - tions gave con - grat - u - la - tions --

E7                      Bb9           A7
How can you face them?  What can you say?


DM7       Fdim                Em7      A7+5      A7
Let's make up, sweet - heart, we can't stay a - part;

Am7                   D7   GM7       C9     CM7
Don't let fool - ish pride keep you from my side.

How can love like ours be end - ed?

E7       A7-9   A7+5  D
It's the talk of the town.
