My Song (Lyrics and Chords)
Verse 1 (Am - F - E)
Babe you got a pretty face
That's the only thing I like about you
Sadly, that's just the case
Who knew that you could be so rude
Verse 2 (Am - F - E)
The way you treat me is so disrespectful
But I can't seem to stay away
With you, I find my self forgetful
And always come back the next day
Chorus (Am - G - F - E)
I'm not attached to you honey
But I can't let you go
(Intro Riff x2 Horns)
The way you act is almost funny
The way you feel I never know
(Piano Solo)
Verse 3 (Am - F - E)
I hate the way you treat me
Cause you always do me wrong
Why can't you leave me be
I know know we can't get along
Verse 4 (Am - F - E)
I'm tired of your games, baby
All you do is let me down
And since I find myself being honest lately:
Your face is all that keeps me around
Chorus (Am - G - F - E)
Im not attached to you honey,
But I just cant let you go
The way you feel, I'll never know
(Bass and Baritone Sax Solo)
Chrous (Am - G - F - E)
Im not attached to you honey,
But I just cant let you
The way you feel, I'll never know
