Chemistry

Oh well I showed up on time for every single gig
I never had any doubts that we were gonna make it big
I knew all the songs, I knew every par
I knew all of the words, you know I learned 'em by heart
Well thanks a lot guys, for treatin' me this way

Well I heard that I'm out, and some other guy's in
They didn't even tell me themselves, I heard it from a friend
Well John has no mercy, bet he didn't think twice
But Paul at least pretended to be nice
He said it ain't your fault, mate, the chemistry isn't right

Chemistry
Don't give me that excuse
You're movin' on to bigger and better things and you wanna cut me loose

Now for the rest of my life, wherever I go, some damn fool will jest
Ain't that the guy they left behind
Ain't that Pete Best

I hear you laughin' at me, you're thinkin', what a clown
Well couldn't he see exactly what was comin' down
Oh, whenever you think things are goin' well
Someone comes along and blows it all to hell
You can't trust nobody, take it from me

One day you might fall in love, and everything is great
And you'll show up on time for every single date
But then she'll look at you with pitiful eyes
What comes next, buddy it's no surprise
She'll say it's not your fault, boy, the chemistry isn't right

Chemistry
She'll give you that excuse
She's movin' on to bigger and better things and she wants to cut you loose

And for the rest of your life, wherever you go, some damn fool will jest
Ain't that the guy she left behind
Just like Pete Best

Just like old Pete Best
