Chorus:
D
Don't tell me
Hard luck stories
And  I  won't
Dsus4    A
Tell you mine
D
Don't tell me
Hard luck stories
D      Bm
And I won't
A7        A  D
Tell you mine

E
Ev'ry time you're feelin' fine
E
Got another good one on the line
D
It slips away, you feel it slip away, slip away

E
I don't want no more from you
E
Won't do what you want me too
D
Turn me loose, come on, turn me loose, turn me loose

E
Ev'ry time I'm feelin' good
E
The phone rings and I knock on wood
D
Hoping that it won't be you, calling like you always do

E
All you ever seem to say
E
Is how much bad luck came your way
D
You won't try to start again,
you just count on your old friends

Chorus

Now you call up every day
Got no money, no place to stay
That girl made a mess of you, you got what was comin' too

Build her up, and let her down
Tastin' everything in town
Treat her right, you never treat her right, treat her right

Now she's gone and you're alone
Bit your fingers to the bone
Slip away, you feel it slip away, slip away

You don't know what's going on
How you lost it, what went wrong
What ever happened too the love that you once knew

Chorus
