G C
oh , well , i feel so loose tonight i might fall to pieces
D G D

D G

B7 C
oh , i was trying to get away from the things that i always do
B7 D

G C
lip service – – well , that’s all you’ll ever get from me
D G D
well , how could you believe i’ll take you seriously?
G C

D G
just remember you’ll only be the boss so long as you pay my wage
G C
all the sign posts on this road that point one way
D G D
don’t act like you’re above me , just look at your shoes
G C
i’ll turn the light out now ’cause there’s nothing more to say
D G

oh , but you could say that you love me very painlessly
