F5
So tired of this heavy load.
Bb5
I've been carrying it for so long.
D5            Bb5
I don't know what it wants with me.
C5
Lord, please let me be.


F5                                Bb5
Rolling dice on my hotel room bed.
F5                                                Bb5
"Man, it feels so nice to love some one" she said.
C5                      Bb5                           F5
"Cause when the evening comes I'm scared to be bad all by myself."
C5                      Bb5                        F5
And I know exactly how it feels to be by myself.


F5
And now she's singing,
F5                                   Bb5
"Happiness always scared me half to death.
F5                                    Bb5
Never had myself no lovin' to caress."
C5                        Bb5                                  F5
Little darling stop those tears and dry your eyes, I'm a be right here.
C5                          Bb5                               F5
And I'd really love to stay tonight, if you'll have me here.

F5   Bb5
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
F5                               C5
Little girl you know I love you so.
D5                               Bb5
Let's take it easy now and simmer down.
C5                               F5
Little girl, let's take the long way home.
