[Ebm] [Dm]
[F] [Dm]
Never [Bb] had nothing, no one to care
That's why I [D] seem to have more than my [C] share
I've [Eb] got a man, [Ebm] crazy for [Bb] me
[Gm] He's [F] funny that way
[Dm]
When I'm [Bb] feeling [C] once in a [Bb] while
His only [Ab] answer is [G] one little [Cm] smile
I've got that [Ebm] man, crazy for [Gm] me
He's [Bb] funny that way
[Ebm]
I can't see no other way
[Bb]
And [Cm] no [Bbm] better [D] plan, [Gm]
[C]
[G] yeah
[Bb]
But [F] I'm only [Bb] human, a [F] coward at [Bb] best
I'm more than [D] certain he'll smile up in [Cm] red

Me, I know [Cm]
[Ebm] I'm crazy [Gm] for me
