Capo IV *
 
D A D  D A D  A D
 

[Verse 1]
 
D          Em
 You got a lotta nerve
   G              D
To say you are my friend
           A
When I was down
G        Bm          A
You just stood there grinning
 
D          Em
 You got a lotta nerve
   G                             D
To say you got a helping hand to lend
         A          G
You just want to be on
    Bm          A
The side that's winning
 
[Verse 2]
 
D          Em
 You say I let you down
    G                  D
You know it's not like that
             A
If you're so hurt
G        Bm        A
Why then don't you show it?
 
D            Em
 You say you lost your faith
    G                     D
But that's not where it's at
            A        G    Bm
You have no faith to lose
        A
And you know it
 
[Verse 3]
 
D           Em
 I know the reason
         G              D
That you talk behind my back
          A   G        Bm
I used to be among the crowd
       A
You're in with
 
D                   Em
 Do you take me for such a fool
   G                 D
To think I'd make contact
         A       G        Bm
With the one who tries to hide
                        A
What he don't know to begin with?
 
[Verse 4]
 
D           Em
 You see me on the street
    G             D
You always act surprised
          A                   G
You say, "How are you?" "Good luck"
    Bm        A
But you don't mean it 
 
D                 Em
 When you know as well as me
             G          D
You'd rather see me paralyzed
          A        G        Bm
Why don't you just come out once
    A
And scream it?
 
[Verse 5]
 
D             Em
 No, I do not feel that good
               G                 D
When I see the heartbreaks you embrace
           A      G
If I was a master thief
   Bm       A
Perhaps I'd rob them
 
D                         Em
 And now I know you're dissatisfied
          G                 D
With your position and your place
          A    G
Don't you understand
     Bm     A
It's not my problem
 
[Verse 6]
 
D                Em
 I wish that for just one time
G                         D
You could stand inside my shoes
             A        G
And just for that one moment
Bm      A
I could be you
 
D                     Em
 Yes, I wish that for just one time
G                         D
You could stand inside my shoes
           A      G       Bm
You'd know what a drag it is
   A
To see you
