Chords for Joe Simon - The Chokin' Kind (with lyrics)

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Db] _
_ _ [Db] _ _ [Ab] I only _ meant to love you.
_ [Bbm] Didn't you know it, baby?
[Bb] _
Didn't you [F] know it?
_ [Db] Why couldn't you _ [Eb] be content
with the [Ab] love I gave you?
Oh, yeah.
I gave you my heart, _
_ but you wanted my [Bbm] mind. _
Oh, yeah.
_ [Db] Your love scared [Eb] me to death, girl.
Oh, it's [Ab] a choking kind.
That's all it is.
You can kill a man
_ with a bottle of [Bbm] poison or a knife.
I know you can't
ever [Db] hurt him more
to [Eb] take his pride.
Let me [Ab] learn his life.
Oh, this is changing.
Whatever it is, girl,
I _ surely [Bbm] hope you'll find. _
Oh, yeah.
I figure that [Db] hat
don't fit [Eb] my head.
Oh, it's a [Ab] choking kind.
Oh, it makes me wanna,
hmm, _ hmm, hmm.
_ [Bb] Oh, yeah.
[Eb]
Oh, listen to [Eb] me.
When [Bb] you fall in love again, girl,
take [Cm] a tip from me.
Oh, yeah.
If [Eb] you don't like [F] the peach,
walk [Bb] on by the tree.
That's what you better [C] do, honey.
_ [Bb] Find what you want, girl.
Keep it treated [Cm] sweet and kind. _
Oh, yeah.
_ _ [Eb] Oh, let it breathe.
[F] Oh, think it's a choking [Bb] kind. _
Oh, no.
[Eb] _ Don't [Bb] break your heart, baby.
Oh, no.
I know you love me.
Really, I do, honey.
[Eb] I tell you, [Bb] love. _
Scared to death, girl.
It's a choking kind.
That's what we do.
I never said it again.
It's not over. _ _ _
