A                          D
Girl, you're gettin' that look in your eyes
                      A         D  A
And it's startin' to worry me
                     D
I ain't ready for no family ties
                A         D  A
Nobody's gonna hurry me
C#m
Just keep it friendly, girl
         F#m
'cause I don't wanna leave
Bm
Don't start clingin' to me, girl
 E7
'Cause I can't breathe

A                      Bm
Baby, baby, don't get hooked on me
E7                     A
Baby, baby, don't get hooked on me
                                   Bm
'Cause I'll just use you then I'll set you free
E7                     D
Baby, baby, don't get hooked on me

A                  D
Girl, you're a hot-blooded woman-child
                            A           D  A
And it's warm where you're touchin' me
                        D
But I can tell by your tremblin' smile
                           A      D  A
You're seein' way too much in me
C#m                            F#m
Girl, don't let your life get tangled up with mine
 Bm
'Cause I'll just leave you
             E7
I can't take no clingin' vine

A                      Bm
Baby, baby, don't get hooked on me
E7                     A
Baby, baby, don't get hooked on me
                                   Bm
'Cause I'll just use you then I'll set you free
E7                     D
Baby, baby, don't get hooked on me

A                      Bm
Baby, baby, don't get hooked on me
E7                     A
Baby, baby, don't get hooked on me
                                   Bm
'Cause I'll just use you then I'll set you free
E7                     D
Baby, baby, don't get hooked on me
