^BmI told Al^Athea I was ^Efeeling los^At, ^Bmlacking in ^Asome di^Erection. ^BmAlthea told ^Ame upon ^Escrutin^Ay that my ^Bmback migh^At need pro^Etection. I ^Atold Althea that ^C#mtreachery was ^Dtearing me ^Alimb from limb. Al^C#mthea told me better ^Ecool down boy,^Bm settle back^A, easy Jim^E.

SOLO: Bm - A - E - A - Bm - A - E - Bm - A - E - A - Bm - A – E VERSE:

^BmYou may be ^ASaturday's ^Echild, all^A grown, ^BmMoving with ^Aa pinch of ^Egrace. ^BmYou may be a^A clown in ^Ethe burying ^Aground, O^Bmr just another ^Apretty f^Eace. ^AYou may meet the fate of Ophe^C#mlia to ^Dsleep and then perchance to d^Aream. ^C#mHonest to the point of ^Erecklessness, ^Bmself-centered^A in the ^Eextreme.

SOLO: Bm - A - E - A - Bm - A - E - Bm - A - E - A - Bm - A – E VERSE:

^BmAin't nobody ^Amessing with ^Eyou, but

you, Y^Bmour friends are g^Aetting most c^Eoncerned. ^BmLoose with the ^Atruth baby ^Eit's your ^Afire ^Bmbut baby I h^Aope you don't get ^Eburned. ^AWhen the smoke has ^C#mcleared, she said, ^Dthat's what she said ^Ato me. G^C#monna want a bed to l^Eay your head a^Bmnd a little ^Asympathy. ^E

SOLO: Bm - A - E - A - Bm - A - E - Bm - A - E - A - Bm - A – E BRIDGE:

^DThere are things you^G can replace, and ot^Ehers you cannot. ^DThe time has come to ^Gweigh those things. ^EThis space is getting hot, ^Bmyou know this ^Aspace is getting ^Ehot.

SOLO: Bm - A - E - A - Bm - A - E - Bm - A - E - A - Bm - A – E Verse:

^BmI told Al^Athea I'm a r^Eogue in^Aside, ^Bmand I was ^Aborn to be a ba^Echelor. ^BmAlthea told^A me, okay, ^Ethat's fine ^Bmso now^A I'm trying to ^Ecatch her. ^ACan't talk to you without ^C#mtalking to me, We're ^Dguilty of the same old th^Aing. ^C#mThinking a lot about l^Eess and less, ^BmAnd forgetting^A the love we ^Ebring.
