Intro
(F A)3x C7 Gm
F A#
When she said,
F A# F
"Don't waste your words, they're just lies,"
A# F A#
I cried she was deaf.
F A# F A# F
And she worked on my face until breaking my eyes,
A# F A#
Then said, "What else you got left?"
C7
It was then that I got up to leave
Gm
But she said, "Don't forget,
F A# F
Everybody must give something back
A# F A#
For something they get."
intro
F A#
I stood there and hummed,
F A# F
I tapped on her drum and asked her how come.
A# F A#
And she buttoned her boot,
F A# F A# F
And straightened her suit,
A# F A#
Then she said, "Don't get cute."
Gm
So I forced my hands in my pockets
F A# F
And felt with my thumbs,
F A# F
And gallantly handed her
A# F A#
My very last piece of gum.
intro
F A#
She threw me outside,
F A# F
I stood in the dirt where ev'ryone walked.
A# F A#
And after finding I'd
F A# F A# F
Forgotten my shirt,
A# F A#
I went back and knocked.
C7
I waited in the hallway, she went to get it,
Gm
And I tried to make sense
F A# F
Out of that picture of you in your wheelchair
A# F A#
That leaned up against . . .
intro
F A#
Her Jamaican rum
F A# F
And when she did come, I asked her for some.
A# F A#
She said, "No, dear."
F A# F A# F
I said, "Your words aren't clear,
A# F A#
You'd better spit out your gum."
C7
She screamed till her face got so red
Gm
Then she fell on the floor,
F A# F
And I covered her up and then
A# F A#
Thought I'd go look through her drawer.
intro
F A#
And, when I was through
F A# F
I filled up my shoe
A# F A#
And brought it to you.
F A# F A# F
And you, you took me in,
A# F A#
You loved me then
C7
You didn't waste time.
Gm
And I, I never took much,
F A# F
I never asked for your crutch.
A# F A#
Now don't ask for mine.
Enjoy!
