Intro: A F#m E A F#m E F#m 

       A                F#m 
Well I walk the way you want me to 
         A                F#m 
And I'll talk the way you want me to 
         E           D                 E 
And I've tried to do all I can just to please you 

       A               F#m 
Well I work hard every day for you 
      A                  F#m 
And I brought home all my pay for you 
         E        D                      Dm          E 
And I've cried my tears through the rain night and again

And oh whoa girl, it's a shame 
   A                  Dm      A 
Oh whoa girl, it's a doggone shame 
    D        A              E     A 
We worked so hard, but it's all in vain

Oh whoa girl, it's a shame 

A     F#m      A      F#m 

      A                     F#m 
Now I bought your gold and diamond rings 
      A                     F#m 
And I brought you home your pretty things 
      E                 D                    E  
And I thought I'd shown all the love I had for you, yes I did 


        A                   F#m 
But as hard as I try it all falls through 
          A                  F#m 
Well maybe I was born to be just your fool 
          E             D                 Dm              E 
Trying to satisfy your every desire, each need you require
