(Intro)
C#m E
You let me follow you around
C#m E
It helped your status in the town
Amaj7 G#m
Well I didn't know your name
C#m G#m
There's no truth in what you claim
Amaj7 B E
So I think you better stop this foolin' 'round
C#m E C#m E C#m B7
C#m E
I think it's called a lesson learned
C#m E
When one so close suddenly turns
Amaj7 G#m
Leaves you standing on your own
C#m G#m
Got no place to call your home
Amaj7 B E
So I think you better stop this foolin' 'round
C#m E C#m E C#m B
C#m A7 Dmaj7
Now it's my time to make amends
C#7 F#m
Hope my message don't offend
F#m7 B
And I hope this doesn't drive you 'round the bend
C#m E C#m E
Amaj7 G#m
Leaves you standing on your own
C#m G#m
Got no place to call your home
Amaj7 B C#m
So I think you better stop this foolin' 'round
Amaj7 B E
Yes, I think you better stop this foolin' 'round
C#m E (repeat and fade)
Yes, I think you better stop this foolin' 'round
