CHORDS

Intro:  A  C  G  C  

Em                         G      
Baby you came knockin' at my front
   A
door
Em                          G
Same old line you used to use
     A
before
Em                      G     
I said, 'Yeah', well what am I
            A
s'posed to do?
Em                          G   
I didn't know what I was gettin'
   A
into
   
C                     
So you've had a little
    D
trouble in town
C                          D   
Now you're keepin' some demon down   
C                     D   
Stop draggin' my, stop draggin' my   
C      G       C          
Stop draggin' my heart around   
   
It's hard to think about what
you've wanted
It's hard to think about what
you've lost
This doesn't have to be the big
get even
This doesn't have to be anything
at all
I know you really wanna tell me
good-bye
I know you really wann be your own
girl
   
C                    
Baby, you could never
   D
look me in the eyes
C                        
Yeah, you buckle with the
   D
weight of the words
C                  D   
Stop draggin' my, stop draggin' my   
C     G        C  
Stop draggin' my heart around   

Bridge:  Em  G  A  

D  C  C/B  C/G X 3 and Reprise Intro

   
Theres' people runnin' round loose
in the world
Ain't got nothin' better to do
Than make a meal of some
bright-eyed kid
You need someone lookin' after you
I know you really wanna tell me
good-bye
I know you really wanna be your
own girl
   
Baby, you could never look me in
the eyes
Yeah, you buckle with the weight
of the words
Stop dragin' my, stop draggin' my
Stop draggin' my heart around
