[Verse 1]
C5 F
Well, I thought that the rain would cool things down
C5 F
But it looks like it don’t
C5 F
I’d like to get you to change your mind
C5 F
But it looks like you won’t
A#
From now on I’ll be busy
F
Ain’t goin’ nowhere fast
C5
I’m just glad it’s over
D# A# | F | A# | F | A# |
And I’m seeing the real you at last
[Verse 2]
C5 F
Well, I risked my neck for you
C5 F
Didn’t I take chances?
C5 F
Didn’t I rise above it all
C5 F
The most unfortunate circumstances?
A#
Well, I have had some rotten nights
F
Didn’t think that they would pass
C5
I’m just thankful and grateful
D# A# | F | A# | F | A# |
To be seeing the real you at last
[Verse 3]
C5 F
I’m hungry and I’m irritable
C5 F
And I’m tired of this bag of tricks
C5 F
At one time there was nothing wrong with me
C5 F
That you could not fix
A#
Well, I sailed through the storm
F
Strapped to the mast
C5
But the time has come
D# A# | F | A# | F | A# |
And I’m seeing the real you at last
[Verse 4]
C5 F
When I met you, baby
C5 F
You didn’t show no visible scars
C5 F
You could ride like Annie Oakley
C5 F
You could shoot like Belle Starr
A#
Well, I don’t mind a reasonable amount of trouble
F
Trouble always comes to pass
C5
All I care about now
D# A# | F | A# | F | A# |
Is that I’m seeing the real you at last

[Verse 5]
C5 F
Well, I’m gonna quit this baby talk now
C5 F
I guess I should have known
C5 F
I got troubles, I think maybe you got troubles
C5 F
I think maybe we’d better leave each other alone
A#
Whatever you gonna do
F
Please do it fast
C5
I’m still trying to get used to
D# A# | F | A# | F | A# |
Seeing the real you at last, yes, I am
