Intro: A5  G5  A5

A5
Got me hanging on a string, honey
G5                       A5
Got me hanging for dear life
                   D5
Mama told me not to be so bold
G5                   A5
And I've been heavy crossed

A5
I fell head first into the fire
G5                      A5
What a foolish thing to do
                     D5
Gambled every bit of sense I had
G5                      A5
And I've lost it all to you

       D5
All to you
G5
You take my breath
A5
My last request
           D5
Is that you will
G5                  A5
Always love me the best

            D5            G5                        A5
So all your pretty babies can have the last laugh I guess
                      D5
Still I'm hanging on a string, honey
G5                     A5
Still I'm hanging on a string

D5  G5
Oh oh
A5
Oh la la la... Oh la la la } (4x)

A5
Out on the streets the bells are ringing
G5                         A5
I said I'm sorry lonesome june
                         D5
I watch the faces as they pass me by
G5                        A5
And I'm hoping that I'll see you

A5
I called your fone it's disconnected
G5                        A5
It has somehow no longer stems
                         D5
Guess the devil came and took you back
G5                     A5
And my life is in his hands

       D5
All to you
G5
You take my breath
A5
My last request
           D5
Is that you will
G5                  A5
Always love me the best

            D5            G5                        A5
So all your pretty babies can have the last laugh I guess
                      D5
Still I'm hanging on a string, honey
G5                     A5
Still I'm hanging on a string
