[Abm]
[Ebm]
[Abm] [Ab]
Why don't you get out of my life?
Set me [Ebm] free, why don't you, baby?
Get out my [Abm] love, baby.
[Ab]
But you don't [Gb] really love me.
You just keep me [Abm] hanging on.
[Ab]
You don't [Ebm] really need me, but you keep me [Abm] hanging on.
[Em]
Why do you keep on [Am] coming around?
[E]
Playing with [B] my heart.
[E]
Why don't you get out of my life?
And let me make [B] a new [Gb] start.
Let me get over you.
[Eb]
The way you've gotten over me.
[Ab]
Hey, set me free, [Gb] why don't you, baby?
Let me be, [E] why don't you, [Abm] baby?
[Ab]
Cause you don't [Ebm] really love me.
You just keep me [Abm] hanging on.
[Ab]
[Eb] Now you don't [Ebm] really want me.
You just keep me [Abm] hanging on.
[E]
You say although we broke up,
You still wanna be [B] just friends.
[E]
But how can we still be friends
When seeing you only [Ab] breaks my heart [Eb] again?
And there ain't nothing I can do about it.
[Ab]
Set me free, [Ebm] why don't you, baby?
Why
[Abm] don't you, baby?
[Ab]
Set me free, [Ebm] why don't you, baby?
Get [C] out my [Abm] love, baby.
[E]
You claim you still care for me.
But your heart and soul needs to [B] be free.
[E]
But now that you've got your freedom,
You wanna still hold [B] on to me.
[Gb]
You don't want me, so you stay.
[Eb] So let me find somebody else.
[Ab] Hey, why don't you [Ebm] be a man and set [Abm] me free?
[Ab] Now, you don't [Ebm] care a thing about me.
You're just [Abm] using me.
[Ab]
Get out, [Ebm] get out of me.
And let me [Abm] sleep at night.
[Ab]
I should [Ebm] go really late.
[Gb]
