[B] [D#] Ladies and gentlemen,
[Gm] [G] at this point [D#] in [F] our soul rhythm and blues and blues review,
[D] [A]
my brother Jake would [E]
like to become [C#m]
increasingly [D#] intimate with you.
[D]
[G] And he feels [C#] that he [D#] can unwind a little bit, sing a song [Fm] about his personal life.
[F#] Look at [C#] this, he's taking his coat off.
[G] Now when I put this dude to [Gm] bed at night, he [C#] don't take his coat off, [D#]
but he's taking it off for you people.
[F]
Here's my brother Jake.
[D] Thank you.
[A]
Yeah baby, yeah I've [C#m] been drinking
And [D] I, I [Bm] shouldn't come by, I [D] know
[Dm]
[G#] But I [A] found myself in trouble, darling
[F#m]
[E]
[F#] And I had [G#m] nowhere [A] else to go
Got [Bm] [Am]
some whiskey [A] from a [C#m] barman
I got some [D] cocaine from [Dm] my friends
I [F]
gotta [A] keep on moving [F#m] baby
Till [E]
I'm [F#m] back in your [G#]
arms [A] again
[D#]
[D] Guilty, yes [Dm] I'm guilty
[G]
[Am] And I'll be [A] guilty for the [Em] rest of [A] my [Bm] life
[A] How come [D#] baby, how come I [D] never do
[Dm] What I'm supposed to do
[G] How
[B] come everything I [C#]
try
[B] Never turns out [E] right
[A]
[B] You know how it is [A] with me baby
You [C#m]
[C#] [C#m]
[D]
know I just can't stand myself
It
[Gm]
[A] takes a whole lot [F#m] of medicine darling
[E] For me to [F#] pretend that [G#m] I'm somebody [A] else
Well, [D]
[Dm]
[A]
[D]
looks like that verdict [D#] is in.
My brother Jake is
