Tom : C
C Am
F G (2x)
[Verse 1]
C Am C Am
I came home to an empty house And I found your little note
F G F G
"Don't wait up for me tonight" And that was all she wrote
C Am
Do you think I don't know that you're out on the town
C Am
With all of your high-rollin' friends?
F G
What do you do when you come up empty?
F G
Where do you go when the party ends?
[Chorus]
C Am
And you were just too busy being fabulous
F G
Too busy to think about us
C Am
I don't know what you were dreaming of
F G
Somehow you forgot about love
C F G C
And you were just too busy being fabulous, uh-huh
[Verse 2]
C Am C Am
A little time in the country A day or two to slow down
F G F G
A bottle of wine and a walk in the moonlight Maybe some foolin' around
C Am C Am
But you think time is just a magazine And money's just a thrill
F G
I've waited so long for you to change your way of livin'
F G
Now I realize that you never will
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
C Caug Am/C Caug
You tell a joke and everybody's laughin'
C Caug Am/C Caug
That's something you know how to do
C C Am/C Caug
You've always been the life of the party
D7 G
But now my baby, the joke is on you
[Chorus]
C Am
And you were just too busy being fabulous
F G
Too busy to think about us
C Am
Running after something that never comes
F G
What in the world are you runnin' from?
C Am
And you were just too busy being fabulous
F G
Too busy to think about us
C Am
To drink the wine from your winner's cup
F G
To notice the children were growin' up
[Outro]
C Am
And you were just too busy being fabulous
F G
Too busy, too busy
