[Verse]
Em C D/F#
I'm not saying it was your fault, although you could have done more
G D
Oh, you're so naive yet so
Em C D/F#
How could this be done, by such a smiling sweetheart
G D
Oh, and your sweet and pretty face
Em C D/F#
In such an ugly world, something so beautiful
G D
Oh, that every time I look inside
[Chorus]
C G D/F#
I know, she knows that I'm not fond of asking
C G D/F#
True or false, it may be... Well, she's still out to get me
C Em D/F#
And I know, she knows that I'm not fond of asking
C G D/F# C
True or false, it may be... She's still out to get me!
[Verse]
Em C D/F#
I may say it was your fault because I know you could have done more
G D
Oh, you're so naive yet so
Em C D/F#
How could this be done by such a smiling sweetheart
G D
Oh, and your sweet and pretty face
Em C D/F#
In such an ugly world something so beautiful
G D
That every time I look inside
[Chorus]
C G D/F#
I know, she knows that I'm not fond of asking
C G D/F#
True or false, it may be... Well, she's still out to get me
C Em D/F#
And I know, she knows that I'm not fond of asking
C G D/F# C
True or false, it may be... She's still out to get me!
[Verse]
Em C D/F#
So how could this be done, by such a smiling sweetheart
G D
You're so naive yet so
Em C D/F#
You're such an ugly thing for someone so beautiful
G D/F#
That every time you're on his side
[Chorus]
C G D/F#
I know, she knows that I'm not fond of asking
C G D/F#
True or false, it may be... Well, she's still out to get me
C Em D/F#
And I know, she knows that I'm not fond of asking
C G D/F#
True or false, it may be... She's still out to get me!
[Outro]
C C/B Em G
Just don't let me down

Just don't let me down
C C/B Em
Hold on to your kite
G
Just don't let me down
C C/B Em G
Just don't let me down
C C/B Em
Hold on to your kite
G
Just don't let me down
C C/B Em
Just don't let me down

barre chords sound great on an electric for this song i agree, however if you are playing it acoustically and singing aswell i think it is much easier this way

I guess it is ok if you can't do barre chords but it is certainly more fun playing no capo and barre chords
