I Bow Out

<br>Tired of playing this game<br>And I won&#8217;t play it no more<br>And I won&#8217;t take it no more<br>Through with being your fool<br>And I won&#8217;t do it no more<br>And I won&#8217;t, I won&#8217;t keep up this act<br>Not for one minute<br>I&#8217;m gonna pull, I&#8217;m gonna pull this curtain down<br>(Chorus):<br>This time I won&#8217;t play this game<br>I made a vow to make a change<br>And I bow out<br>I won&#8217;t be hanging around, baby<br>I decline to take the pain<br>And I resign the masquerade<br>And I bow out<br>I won&#8217;t be staying around, baby<br>I bow out<br>Can&#8217;t go on with the show<br>You&#8217;re just a stage I went through<br>Now you&#8217;re just fading from view, yeah baby<br>It&#8217;s time for a change of scene<br>Guess I&#8217;ll be taking my leave<br>I guess I won&#8217;t, I won&#8217;t stay in this play<br>Not for one minute<br>I&#8217;m gonna make, I&#8217;m gonna make my exit now<br>Oh baby<br>(Repeat Chorus)<br>When you&#8217;re left standing on that stage all alone<br>Maybe you will realize<br>You should of learned to treat me right<br>And when this final act is finally through<br>Maybe you&#8217;ll wish you&#8217;d been<br>The kind of man you should have been<br>Now watch me say goodbye<br>And walk right out of your life<br>Oh baby, all right babe<br>(Repeat Chorus until fade)<br>
