Intro
(A# A)3x F7 Cm
A# D#
When she said,
A# D# A#
"Don't waste your words, they're just lies,"
D# A# D#
I cried she was deaf.
A# D# A# D# A#
And she worked on my face until breaking my eyes,
D# A# D#
Then said, "What else you got left?"
F7
It was then that I got up to leave
Cm
But she said, "Don't forget,
A# D# A#
Everybody must give something back
D# A# D#
For something they get."
intro
A# D#
I stood there and hummed,
A# D# A#
I tapped on her drum and asked her how come.
D# A# D#
And she buttoned her boot,
A# D# A# D# A#
And straightened her suit,
D# A# D#
Then she said, "Don't get cute."
Cm
So I forced my hands in my pockets
A# D# A#
And felt with my thumbs,
A# D# A#
And gallantly handed her
D# A# D#
My very last piece of gum.
intro
A# D#
She threw me outside,
A# D# A#
I stood in the dirt where ev'ryone walked.
D# A# D#
And after finding I'd
A# D# A# D# A#
Forgotten my shirt,
D# A# D#
I went back and knocked.
F7
I waited in the hallway, she went to get it,
Cm
And I tried to make sense
A# D# A#
Out of that picture of you in your wheelchair
D# A# D#
That leaned up against . . .
intro
A# D#
Her Jamaican rum
A# D# A#
And when she did come, I asked her for some.
D# A# D#
She said, "No, dear."
A# D# A# D# A#
I said, "Your words aren't clear,
D# A# D#
You'd better spit out your gum."
F7
She screamed till her face got so red
Cm
Then she fell on the floor,
A# D# A#
And I covered her up and then
D# A# D#
Thought I'd go look through her drawer.
intro
A# D#
And, when I was through
A# D# A#
I filled up my shoe
D# A# D#
And brought it to you.
A# D# A# D# A#
And you, you took me in,
D# A# D#
You loved me then
F7
You didn't waste time.
Cm
And I, I never took much,
A# D# A#
I never asked for your crutch.
D# A# D#
Now don't ask for mine.
Enjoy!
