[F#] They [D] keep trying [Em] to tell me, yeah,
[A]
all you want to [D] do is [Em]
use me.

[D] until you [Em] use me up.
[A]
[Bm] Uh, [Em] sometimes, [A]
that's true, you [Em] really do abuse me.
[A]
[G] [Bm] Uh, [Em] you get me in a crowd of high-class people, [A]
uh-huh,
[Bm] and then you act [Em] real rude to me.
[A]
[B] Uh-huh, [Em] but oh, baby, baby, [A] baby, baby,
when [Bm] you love me, I [Em] can't get enough.
[A]
[B] Uh-huh, and I want to spread the news

oh, you just [Em] keep on using me.
Until you use me up, [A]
[Em] until you use me up.
[A]
[Bm] [Em]
Talking about you, let me, [A] brother, get all the things on what you [Em] do.
It ain't too bad the way you use me,
