Intro: Em Bm D C x2
 

Em                         D                           Bm                              C
Set me free why don't you babe? Get out my life, why don't you babe?
Em                                    D                            Bm                        C
Cause you don't really love me, you just keep me hangin' on.
Em                                D                              Bm                       C
Now you don't really need me, you just keep me hangin' on.

 
F                                                          C                          G
Why do ya keep a'comin' around, playin' with my heart?
F                                                     C                                       G     Bm
Why doncha get out of my life, and let me make a new start?
D                                          B7                                      Em
Let me get over you, the way you've gotten over me, yeah.
 

Chorus

 
F                                                             C                              G
You say although we broke up, you still just wanna be friends.
F                                                                  C                                           Em
But how can we still be friends, when seeing you only breaks my heart again?
                           E7
And there ain't nothing I can do about it...


Chorus


F                                                                    C                                           G
You claim you still care for me but your heart and soul need to be free.
F                                                                   C                                              G  Bm
And now that you've got your freedom, you want to still hold on to me.
D                                                          B7                                   Em
You don't want me or yourself, so let me find somebody else, hey, hey.


Em                          D                      Bm                C
Why doncha be a man about it, and set me free?
        Em                          D                         Bm                        C
Now, you don't care a thing about me, you're just usin' me.
   Em             D                          Bm                      C
Go on, get out of my life and let me sleep at night.

Em                       D                             Bm                      C
You don't really love me, you just keep me hangin' on..(x2) (fade)
