G#m                    D#
Don't say that I never moved you

Just because I saw the life before you did

G#m      F#      E   B      F#
All the rooms inside of my soul

Yeah!

You say you need someone to love you
              F#
But it ain't me...

F#                        E
Walking up and down the hall
  B                        F#
Frankie and his third lover
F#                                   E
Speaking all the words she wants to hear
      B                    F#
But that don't mean forever

Chorus:
F#  E
Yeah!
                             B

But it ain't me.

You say you need someone to love you
              F#
But it ain't me.

Sitting down by the fire
Frankie plays the guitar
To people playing make believe
Saying, "Can we get a little higher?"

Chorus:
You give it away, you give it away
You give it away, you give it away so easy, baby
But I can't stand an hour break
Another day, so let me make it easy, babe

And it goes on and on and on and on
On and on and on

Packing her bags, she found somewhere to stay
And in the car to the station, oh
You know the world looks a little brighter
And there's no need for conversation
Tell me why

Chorus:
You give it away, you give it away
You give it away, you give it away so easy, baby
But I can't stand an hour break
Another day, so let me make it easy, babe

And it goes on and on and on and on
On and on and on

Chorus:
You give it away, you give it away
You give it away, you give it away so easy, baby
But I can't stand an hour break
Another day, so let me make it easy, babe
And then it goes

Yeah, you say you need someone to love you
Yeah, you say you need someone to love you
But it ain't me
Yeah, I'll forgive and forget you
You say you need someone to love you
But it ain't me
Yeah, so I'll forgive and forget you
You say you need someone to love you
But it ain't me
Yeah, I'll forgive and forget you
You say you need someone to love you
But it ain't me
Yeah, so I'll forgive and forget you
You say you need someone to love you
But it ain't me
Yeah, I'll forgive and forget you
You say you need someone to love you
But it ain't me
So I'll forgive and forget you
