Well, I don't know why I love you like I do
  D7                    G              C
Nobody in the world can get along with you
            C               F                    C /b /Bb A7
You got the ways of a devil sleeping in a lion's den
       D7                  G                    C
I come home last night you wouldn't even let me in.
   E                               F
Oh sometimes you're as sweet as anybody want to be
   D7                               G    (n.c.)
Oh when you get the crazy notion of jumping all over me
          C                    F                 C /b /Bb A7
Well, you give me the blues, I guess you're satisfied
         D7                  G                  C
When you give me the blues I wanna lay down and die.

I helped you when you had no shoes on your feet, pretty mama
I helped you when you had no food to eat
Now you're the kind of woman I just don't understand
You're taking all my money and give it to another man.
Well, you're the kind of woman makes a man lose his brains
You're that kind of woman drives a man insane
Well, you give me the blues, I guess you're satisfied
    D7                   G                  C   /b /Bb A7
You give me the blues, I wanna lay down and die.

You give me the blues, I wanna lay down and die.
