[C]
You, you've been looking [G] at me [F]
just a little too long.
[C] Now I [G] ain't never [C] looked the same.
[G] [C]
Blindness [G] and kindness, [F]
there's no difference in the two.
When [C] I can no [G] longer see the [C] good in you.
[F] Won't you show [G] me a little [C] shame?
[F] Won't you show me [G] a little [C] shame?
[G] [C] Not that I'm [G] a gentleman [F] looking for a gentlewoman.
But [C] so-called ladies, [G] they keep breaking [C] my heart.
[G] [C]
Show [G] me a house, [F]
show me a [A] home.
[C] Show me how it could [G] all [C]
fall apart.
Now [F] won't you show me [G] a little [C] shame?
[F] Won't you show me [G] a little shame?
[C]
Won't [F] you show me [G] a little [C] shame?
Cause [Am] now I wake up in the morning [C] more tired than before I slept.
I [Am]
get through crying and [F] I'm sadder than before, however.
[G]
I get through thinking now and [Am] the thoughts [G] have left [F] my head.
[A#]
I get through speaking and I can't remember a lot of [F]
words that [G] I said.
[C]
You [G] change your mind [F]
so many times.
I wonder [C] if you have a [G] mind [C] at all.
[G] [C] And I'd [G] rather be [F#] [F]
by myself than to [C] have your lonesome [G] company [C] come to call.
Won't [F] you show me [G] a little [C] shame?
[F] Won't you show me [G] a little shame?
[C]
[F] Won't you show me [G] a little shame?

[F] Won't you show [G] me a little shame?
