Intro--Am/C/F/C--2x

Am                     C
I know she said it's alright
F                           C
But you can make it up next time
Am                          C
I know she knows it's not right
F                     C
There ain't no use in Lying
Am                  C
Maybe she thinks I know something
       F                         C
Maybe maybe she thinks it's fine
Am                       C
Maybe she knows something I don't I'm so, 
F                  G
I'm so tired, I'm so tired of trying

(Chorus)
C                     G
It seems to me that maybe
Am                          E
It pretty much always means no
F                      G                C           G
So don't tell me you might just let it go
C                      G
And often times we're lazy
Am                       E
It seems to stand in my way
F                      G                C         G
Cause no one no not no one wants to be let down

(Guitar quiet)
Am                     C
I know she loves the sunrise
F                            C
No longer sees it with her sleeping eyes
Am                                    C
I know that when she said she's gonna try
F                                   C
Well it might not work because of other ties
Am                            C 
I know she usually has some other ties and
F                               
I wouldn't want to break 'em, nah, 
C
I wouldn't want to break em

(Guitar loud again)
Am                   C
Maybe she'll help me to untie this but
F                 G
Until then well, I'm gonna have to lie to her

(Chorus)2x

Outro
(Reggae blues feel)

C                                                F
The harder that you try baby, the further you'll fall 
           C                    G
Even with all the money in the whole wide world 
C
Please please please don't pass me 
F
Please please please don't pass me 
C              G                 C
Please please please don't pass me by 

Everything you know about me now baby you gonna have to change 
You gonna have to call it by a brand new name 
Please please please don't drag me 
Please please please don't drag me 
Please please please don't drag me down 

Just like a tree down by the water baby I shall not move 
Even after all the silly things you do 
Please please please don't drag me 
Please please please don't drag me 
Please please please don't drag me down
