VERSE
A G9 D
I don't want to talk about it to you
A G9 D
I'm not an open book that you can rifle through
A Bm7 G9 Em7
The cold hard truth that you'll see right to
D A G9
I'm just a basket case without you
A G9 D
He's not a magic man or a perfect fit
A G9 D
But had a steady hand and I got used to it
A Bm7 G9 Em7
And a glass cage heart and invited me in
D A G9
And now I'm just a basket case without him
CHORUS
D G9
You're begging for the truth
Gm D ( G/D A/D )
So I'm saying it to you
G9
I've been saving your place
Gm
And what good does it do
D A G9
Now I'm just a basket case
D A G9
Now I'm just a basket case
VERSE
A G9 D
I don't say much and it'll stay that way
A G9 D
You got a steel train touch and I'm just a track you lay
A Bm7 G9 Em7
So I'll stay right here underneath you
D A G9
I'm just a basket case and that's what we do
CHORUS
D G9
You're begging for the truth
Gm D ( G/D A/D )
So I'm saying it to you
D G9
I've been saving your place
Gm
And what good does it do
D A G9
Now I'm just a basket case
BRIDGE
D
Won't somebody come on in and tug at my seams
A
Oh send your armies in of robbers and thieves
Bm G9 D/F# G9 A Bm7 A7/C#
To steal the state I'm in I don't want it anymore
CHORUS
D G9
You're begging for the truth
Gm D (G/D A/D )
So I'm saying it to you
D G9
I've been saving your place
Gm
And what good does it do
D A G9
Now I'm just a basket case
D A G9
Now I'm just a basket case
D A G9
Now I'm just a basket case
D A G9
Now I'm just a basket case
