G
Well now just because you think you're so pretty  
                                     D7
And just because you think you're so hot  
 
Just because you think that you got something
                     G
That nobody else has got
 
 
Though you made me spend up all my money
                              G7    C
You laughed and called me old Santa Clause
                          G           E7
But I'm tellin' you honey I'm leaving you
A7      D7     G
Because just because
 
 
Just because you think I'm so lonesome 
                               D7
Just because you think I'll be blue
 
Just because you think I'd be foolish 
                                    G
To stay around at home and wait for you
 
 
Though you made me drop all my boyfriends 
                            G7    C
You laughed and call me old Santa Cause
                           G                E7
Well I'm telling you honey I'm through with you 
A7       D7    G
Because just because
 
 
There'll come a day when you'll be lonesome
                                   D7
There'll come a day when you'll be blue
                                    
When old Santa Clause won't be near you
                         G
To pay all the bills for you
 
 
Though you may say that I'm foolish
                              G7    C
And think you had to drop old Santa Clause
                      G                  E7
I'm tellin' you honey I was through with you
A7       D7    G
Because just because
 
 
Just because I know that you'll want me
                                 D7
Just because you'll miss all the fun
 
Just because I know you'll be sorry
                            G
For all the things you have done
 
 
Though you'll come to see me and be begging
                              G7    C
Don't thing I'll still be old Santa Clause
                                G               E7
Now I'm knocking wood this time I'm through for good
A7      D7     G
Because just because
