Start Jamming...
[G#] [C] [C#] [G#] [C] [C#]
Don't call my name out your [A#m] window when I'm leaving.
[F#] I won't even turn [G#] my head.
[C#] Don't send your kinfolks to give me [A#m] no talking.
[D#] I'll be gone like [G#] I said.
[C#] You'd say the same old thing that you've
been saying all along.
[F#] Lay there in your bed.
Keep your mouth shut till I'm gone.
[C#] And don't give me that old familiar [A#m] crying, cussing,
moan.
[F#] [G#] Understand [C#] your man.
[A#m] Meditate on it.
[F#] [G#] Understand [C#] your man.
And you can give my other suit to the Salvation [A#m] Army.
[F#] And anything else I leave [G#] behind.
[C#] Ain't taking nothing that'll slow down [A#m] my traveling
[D#] while I'm untangled in [G#] my mind.
[C#] And I ain't going to repeat what I said anymore
[F#] while I'm breathing air that ain't been breathed before.
[C#] I'll be as gone as a wild goose [A#m] in winter.
[F#] Then you'll [G#] understand your [C#] man.
[A#m] Hear me talking now, honey.
[F#] [G#] Understand your [C#] man.
[F#] [G#] Understand your [C#] man.
Meditate [A#m] on it.
[F#] [G#] Understand [C#] your man.
