[B] Oh, you don't have to say anything.
[E] You have got to mean [B]
everything.
[E] This woman on my mind, [B] her lies stink the [G#m] same as mine.
[C#m] Oh, and I don't think I should go on [F#] home to her.
[B] Oh, desperate is my plan, but here am I, please.
[E] When that cradle falls [B] from the tree,
[E] the deaf baby walking, [B] and I've done [G#m] my talking.

[G#m] I know you didn't mean [B]
everything.
[E] Who could I be kidding when [B] I'll always have my [G#m] mind on quitting?
