[Verse 1]
A#5 D#
Well, I thought that the rain would cool things down
A#5 D#
But it looks like it don’t
A#5 D#
I’d like to get you to change your mind
A#5 D#
But it looks like you won’t
G#
From now on I’ll be busy
D#
Ain’t goin’ nowhere fast
A#5
I’m just glad it’s over
C# G# | D# | G# | D# | G# |
And I’m seeing the real you at last
[Verse 2]
A#5 D#
Well, I risked my neck for you
A#5 D#
Didn’t I take chances?
A#5 D#
Didn’t I rise above it all
A#5 D#
The most unfortunate circumstances?
G#
Well, I have had some rotten nights
D#
Didn’t think that they would pass
A#5
I’m just thankful and grateful
C# G# | D# | G# | D# | G# |
To be seeing the real you at last
[Verse 3]
A#5 D#
I’m hungry and I’m irritable
A#5 D#
And I’m tired of this bag of tricks
A#5 D#
At one time there was nothing wrong with me
A#5 D#
That you could not fix
G#
Well, I sailed through the storm
D#
Strapped to the mast
A#5
But the time has come
C# G# | D# | G# | D# | G# |
And I’m seeing the real you at last
[Verse 4]
A#5 D#
When I met you, baby
A#5 D#
You didn’t show no visible scars
A#5 D#
You could ride like Annie Oakley
A#5 D#
You could shoot like Belle Starr
G#
Well, I don’t mind a reasonable amount of trouble
D#
Trouble always comes to pass
A#5
All I care about now
C# G# | D# | G# | D# | G# |
Is that I’m seeing the real you at last

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