 VERSE:
    F#m          Bm            A           F#m
    Belinda was mine 'til the time that I found her
  A         Bm
    Holdin' Jim
  A            Bm
    And loving him

  F#m              Bm               A                F#m
    Then Sue came along, loved me strong, that's what I thought
  A        Bm
    Me and Sue,
  A               Bm
    But that died too.

  CHORUS I:
  A                    D          A         E
    Don't know that I will but until I can find me
                     D              A            E
    A girl who will stay and won't play games behind me

                                    E -------------|

  VERSE:
    I've had it to here being where love's a small word
    A part time thing
    A paper ring

    I know it's been done havin' one girl who loves me
    Right or wrong
    Weak or strong

  CHORUS II:
  A                    D          A         E

                       D              A            E
    The girl who will stay and won't play games behind me

     E             F#m ---(RIFF)         RIFF
    I'll be what I am               E -------------|
    E          F#m -------(RIFF)    B --------2----|
    A solitary man                  G ------2---4--|

    A solitary man                  A -------------|
                                    E -------------|

   INSTRUMENTAL: IMPROVISE OVER THE F#m CHORD

  CHORUS III:
  A                    D          A            E
    Don't know that I will but until love can find me
                           D              A            E
    And the girl who will stay and won't play games behind me

     E             F#m ---(RIFF)         RIFF
    I'll be what I am               E -------------|
