Capo - 2nd fret

C G C G

C
You were cryin' in the dark - I was tryin' to light a spark
         G
And you said what is your problem
C
I said I'm not really sure - I thought you were my cure
G
But brass ones you don't got 'em
C
You said oh baby, come on pretty baby
G
Wrap those arms around me


(chorus)
D                      Am      G
(I said) I don't wanna be your mother
D                 Am      G
And I don't wanna be your friend
D               Am        G
And I don't just wanna be someone to fix you up
G
When you're broken


I said woah, I gotta go - you said it's late I know
I said that is not the issue
I can take it on the chin - and despite the fix I'm in
Just smile and say god bless you
You said oh baby, come on pretty baby
Just say it like you feel it


(chorus)

solo - same progression as verse


Alright dynamite - get yourself a flashlight
And show me somethin' doin'
The clock is on the wall - ol' bessies down the hall
And it's time she started mooin'
You said oh baby, come on pretty baby
Words they shine like diamonds
