Verse 1:

D C

Well I remember when you used to look so good

D C D C D C

And I did everything that I possibly could for you

D C

We used to ride around all over town

D C D C D C

But they're puttin' you down for bein' around with me

E G/D E

But you can go ahead if you want to

G/D E G A D C D C

'Cause I ain't got no papers on you

Verse 2:

In the middle of the summer I had a job bein' a plumber

Just to pass till the fall it was you I wanna ball all day

Ah-we were walkin' along, honey, hand in hand

I'm a-thinkin' of you, mama, when you're thinkin' of another man

But you can go ahead if you want to

'Cause I ain't got no papers on you

(No, I don't I ain't got no papers on myself)

Break ("Bo Diddley" beat):

[repeat intro]

(guitar solo over D-C intro riff [8X])

Verse 3:

All alone on the bone when I didn't have a home

When I saw the way I was and I knew where I was supposed to be

I was twitchin' so I turned and it's really hard to learn

That everyone I saw was just another part of me

But you can go ahead if you want to

'Cause nobody's got no papers on you

(No, babe, it's just a falsehood)

[repeat break]

[repeat intro; end cold on D]
