Verse 1
N.C.
Well, I said,
  Am
Excuse me lady, what’s your name,
C
You’ve been playing stupid games,
F
Runnin round, you’re hard to find,
    E
But I don’t even mind.


Verse 2
Am
Tell me sister, I’ve been told,
C
Women come, and women go,
    F
But love is worth its weight in gold,
     E                  E7
This one I won’t let go.


Verse 3
    Am
And I’ve been sailing on the seas,
C
I’ve been tumbling with the breeze,
F
Know I’ve got my eyes on you,
    E
And everything you do.


Verse 4
     Am
Your boyfriend, he’s a lucky man,
    C
The things I’d do to hold your hand,
F
Never let you out my sight,
       E                       E7
You’re mine, o’ mine, o’ mine.


Chorus
    Fmaj7           E7
And I’d be crazy to ever let you go,
     Am
I’ve realized I’ve got to do,
     C
Much more when you say no,
Fmaj7
You don’t know,
         E7
That I’m hanging off your tail,
     Am
Just pay me some attention,
          C
Won’t you break me out of jail,
Fmaj7        E7*
Only now you know,
                Am Am7 Am  Am7 Am  Am7 Am*
I won’t let you go.


Verse 5
   Am
On God’s green earth, whoever thought,
     C
That night you rocked up at my door,
    F
The sky turned black, and even though
       E                       E
You’re hearing stay when I say go.


Verse 6
    Am
And you said that you fight for love,
     C
When all I do is fight you off,
F
I won’t hear a word you say,
  E                             E
I said it once and I’ll say it again.


Chorus
    Fmaj7           E7
And I’d be crazy to ever let you go,
     Am
I’ve realized I’ve got to do,
     C
Much more when you say no,
Fmaj7
You don’t know,
         E7
That I’m hanging off your tail,
     Am
Just pay me some attention,
          C
Won’t you break me out of jail,
Fmaj7        E7
Only now you know.


Verse 7
   Am
So careful on those lonely roads,
  C
I swear the fire’s getting close,
      F
Those voices in your head, they talk,
        E
They’re downing out what’s right from wrong.


Verse 8
   Am
So as you watch your house burn down,
     C
With no one there to put it out,
    F
You poured the fuel and struck a match,
    E                                 E
Twisted the knife right in your back.


Outro
    Fmaj7           E7
And I’d be crazy to ever let you go,
     Am
I’ve realized I’ve got to do,
     C
Much more when you say no,
Fmaj7
You don’t know,
         E7
That I’m hanging off your tail,
     Am
Just pay me some attention,
      G/B C
Won’t you break me out of jail,
Fmaj7        E7*
Only now you know,
                Am*
I won’t let you go.
