Intro A  G2  D  A  G2  D 



[Verso 1]

  A             G2                 D 
I don't want to talk about it to you 
        A 
I'm not an open book  
            G2        D 
That you can rifle through 
    A 
The cold hard truth 
            Bm7        G2  Em7 
That you'll see right to 
           D          A            G2    
I'm just a basket case without you 

           A              G2       D 
He's not a magic man or a perfect fit 
          A                     G2       D 
But had a steady hand and I got used to it 
      A                    Bm7         G2  Em7 
And a glass cage heart and invited me in 
                   D          A            G2 
And now I'm just a basket case without him 


[Refrão]


D                    G2    
You're begging for the truth 
Gm                    D  G/D  A/D 
So I'm saying it to you 
                      G2    
I've been saving your place 
         Gm 
And what good does it do 
               D           A  G2    
Now I'm just a basket case 
               D           A  G2    
Now I'm just a basket case 


[Verso 2]


  A                        G2           D 
I don't say much and it'll stay that way 
         A 
You got a steel train touch 
                G2           D 
And I'm just a track you lay 
        A               Bm7        G2  Em7 
So I'll stay right here underneath you 
           D             A                 G2 
I'm just a basket case and that's what we do

You're begging for the truth 
Gm                    D  G/D  A/D 
So I'm saying it to you 
D                        G2    
I've been saving your place 
         Gm 
And what good does it do 
               D          A  G2    
Now I'm just a basket case 



[Ponte]

               D 
Won't somebody come on in and tug at my seams 
             A 
Oh send your armies in of robbers and thieves 
             Bm        G2 
To steal the state I'm in 
     D/F#            G2 
I don't want it anymore 

( A  Bm7  A7/C# )

I've been saving your place 
         Gm 
And what good does it do 
               D           A  G2    
Now I'm just a basket case 
               D           A  G2
