Em    G               C           G
Say I have known some less than I should
Em    G                   C           G
Say I have known some too well for my own good
Em        G               C         G
Say I?m a saint of mercy, say I?m a whore
Em          G              C         G
I?ve been a lot of things, but never yours

Interlude

Em        G            C          G
I wear my mama?s dress her finest clothes
Em              G                   C            G
Daddy showed me outside to meet you on the front porch
Em         G                   C        G
I laugh at all your jokes, but you look bored
Em          G              C         G
I?ve been a lot of things, but never yours

Interlude

Em        G             C          G
You never cross my mind you can be sure
Em           G            C               G
You?ll never catch my eye waiting for you watching the door
Em         G               C              G
I let you hold me, dry lip kiss me on the dance hall floor
Em          G              C         G
I?ve been a lot of things, but never yours

Bridge
Am
Never yours, never yours
D            Dsus4 D
Never yours, never yours
Am
Never yours, never yours
D            Dsus4 D
Never yours, never yours

Em     G            C        G
So you say you won, it was a bet
Em        G              C          G
A game of pool or cards, I repay my family?s debt
Em        G              C         G
I let you lie beside me, with no remorse
Em          G              C         G
I?ve been a lot of things, but never yours

Interlude

Say I have known some less than I should
Em    G               C               G
Say I have known some too well for my own good
Em        G               C         G
Say I?m a saint of mercy, say I?m a whore
Em          G              C         G
I?ve been a lot of things, but never yours
