At the very first time I [Db] gave my eyes to you,
[Ab] My [Cm]
[Ab] heart said follow [Db] through.
[Ab] But I know now that [Db] I'm way down on your line.
[Ab] But the way you treat [Db] me,
[Ab] So don't treat me like [Db] a puppet gone astray.
[Ab] Cause I know how to do [Db] my thing.
[Ab] Don't talk to me,
[Db] If you think I'm dumb.
[Ab] I wanna know when you're gonna [Db] come.

And no [Db] love.

In life I know,

But [Ab]
your love is my [Db] relief.
[Ab] Tears in my eyes burn,
[Db] Tears in my eyes burn,
[Ab] While I'm waiting,
While I'm waiting for [Db] my turn.
See,
