[Eb] [E] [Dbm]
[Gb] [Gb]
[Abm] I'm not [E] saying it was your fault, although [Ebm] you could have done more
[B] Oh you're [Gb] so naive, yet [Abm] so, how could [E] you be dumb?
Was it your smiling [Gb] sweet heart?
[B] Or aren't [Gb] your sweet, empty [Abm]
face?
[Ab] Is it you that's [E] leaving, for something [Gb] so beautiful?
[B] Oh that every [Gb] time I look [E] inside, I know [B] she knows that I'm not fond [E] of asking
And true or false, [B] it may be, well she's still out to [E] get me
And I know [Abm] she knows [Gb] that I'm not fond [E] of asking
True or false, [B] if it's still a [E] scary thing
[Abm]
I may say [E] it was your fault, because I know you [Gb] could have done more
[B] Oh you're so [Gb] naive, [Abm] yet so, how could you [E] be dumb?
Was it your smiling [Gb] sweet heart?
Or aren't your [Bb] sweet, empty [Abm]
face?
Is it you that's leaving, [E] for something so [Gb] beautiful?
Oh [B] that every [Gb] time I look [E] inside, I know [B] she knows that I'm not fond of [E] asking
And true or false, [B] it may be, well she's still [E] out to get me
And I know [Abm] she knows that [Gb] I'm not fond of [E] asking
True or false, [B] if it's still a [Abm] scary thing
[E]
[Abm]
[Ab] [Ebm]
[B] [Abm]
So how could you [E] be dumb?
Your smiling [Gb] sweet heart?
[B] Oh you're so [Gb] naive, [Abm] yet so, you're killing me [E] then
Someone so [Gb] beautiful, [Ab] [B] oh that every [Gb] time you look [E] inside
[Gb] I know she [B] knows that I'm not fond of [E] asking
And true or false, it [B] may be, well she's still out to [E] get me
And I know [Abm] she knows that [Gb] I'm not fond of [E] asking
And true or false, it [B] may be, well she's still [E] out to get me
[B] Just [Abm] [B] don't let me [E] down, [B] [Abm] [B] just don't let me [E] down
Hold [B] on to [Abm] your pride, [B] just don't let me [E] down
[B] [Abm] Just don't let me [E] down, hold [B] on to [Abm] your pride
[B] Just don't let [E] me [B] down, [Abm] just don't let me [E] down
Hold [B] on to your [Abm] pride, just [B] don't let me down
[Abm] Just don't let me down
[B]
