[Ab] [C] [Cm] I've been abused, and I've been misused, and I'm mad as hell.
In other words, I'm stone mad.
You know, I took a young lady out to dinner, and after dinner she said, I'm going to have
to leave you now.
I said, do you mean to tell me I done spent fifteen or sixteen dollars and you're going
to leave me and ain't going to do nothing?
Do you know what that dirty woman said?
Put her hands on her hip, look at me and say, I knew all the time what you had on your mind,
but your son would be that way sometimes.
[G]
[Cm] Have you ever [Fm]
wanted something [G] that [Cm] you just couldn't have?
[Fm] [G]
[Gm] And have [Cm] you ever heard something funny?
It was [Fm] so funny, [G] but you [Cm] just couldn't laugh.
Oh [Fm] no.
[G] Tell me, have you [Cm] ever been someplace [Fm] you was having a good [Cm] time, [Fm] and you just didn't
want [Cm] to leave?
[Fm] Oh, it'd [Cm] be [Fm] that way
[Cm] sometimes.
Let me say it again.

[Cm] didn't love you?
[Fm] It's hard, it's hard.
[G] And that [Cm] somebody, that somebody [Fm] you [G] loved loved someone [Cm] else too.
And that [Fm] pain is so hard to [G] bear.

[Fm] Mmm.
Have [Cm] [D] [Cm]

Listen to me [Fm] good now.
[G] And [Cm] that somebody, that [Fm] somebody you loved, [G] that dirty dog, turned around [Cm] and stabbed
you in the back.
You took him [Fm] to be your friend, [G] you see [Cm] a true friend [Fm] these [Cm] days
[Fm] It's kinda hard to [Cm] find, believe what Joe Simon tell [Fm] you it [Cm] be's [D] that way [Gm]

Just like [Cm] your friend don't give a damn about you
I tell you it be's that [Fm] way sometimes
It be's [G] that way, you give [Cm] him a cold up your back
Then turn [Fm] right around and stab you in the back
