Look here, sweet thing,
A
let me explain myself, baby
F#m
Bm
When I say you're dead,
E
I- I mean, you know
A
I mean, I mean you're really out of sight
F#m
Bm
Out of sight, totally together
E
But you, you let me down now
A
You didn't even defend yourself
F#m
You didn't defend yourself
Bm
Nor me
E
A
And you left me like, like...
F#m
Oh, no, I can't say this on record,
Bm
E
but I'm gonna try to write
Em
E
This little old letter and,
A
and let you dig my little old rap
F#m
It starts like this
Listen to it
Bm
For what it's worth, for what it
E
A
Could mean to you and I both later on
F#m
Dear Sweet Thing, Fox,
Bm
Em
all the beautiful things
E
A
All the little names that I give you
F#m
I sit here so aggravated and bewildered
Bm
because
E
You didn't, you know,
Em
E
you didn't come home
A
You didn't come straight
F#m
back to me last night
Bm
E
No fussing, no fighting, no nothing
A
F#m
You just up and split
Bm
with another cat
E
Of course, I found out later he was your friend,
A
but uh...
F#m
And this much this morning I was able,
I was able
Bm
E
To understand that, after a very hectic night
A
F#m
You can dig the night was long
Bm
E
Now, I made it clear as possible,
A
as possibly I could say it
F#m
Bm
Baby, don't go to strangers
E
A
Come on home to me
F#m
Now, it's true, it's true,
Bm
this is a man's world
E
A
But it wouldn't be nothing
F#m
Bm
without your kind that I
E
See now after 24 hours of suffering,
A
F#m
Bm
tears, cold sweat
E
A
Why does my girl always have to be the
F#m
One to go south and go away
Bm
from me?
E
And leave me stringing on a tree,
dangling on a string
That's all right
A
I'm gonna be there when you come back
F#m
But I'm gonna give you this little old rap
Bm
So you can get this together,
E
you know?
A
Since you don't, you know,
smoke it in a pipe
F#m
Bm
Just to chew it but understand
what I'm saying
E
I want you to know where I'm coming
from now
A
Like, I have a right, you know,
F#m
to like, come on with this old
Bm
Aggravated or, or, uh,
E
antagonizing rap because I feel a little down
A
But I think you're gonna make it all
F#m
Right 'cause you just together that way
Bm
Now, baby,
E
can't you be conscious of like
A
Every moment in the day and the night?
F#m
Bm
And let all of our moods be for each other together,
E
you know?
A
And completely out of sight,
F#m
completely out of sight in every way
Bm
How can I explain it when we
E
live and
A
Concentrate on being healthy
F#m
100% in mellow tone?
Bm
E
However, yes,
A
I know sometime that you aren't mellow, but
F#m
You know, uh, deep down inside
Bm
I know you mellow people
E
A
Well, at least not as mellow as I
hope you would be sometime
F#m
But you know how to do something
Bm
about that too
'Cause you just too good
E
A
to be anything but you
F#m
Now, I'm still, I'm still willing to,
Bm
E
to help for, for...
A
Let's say help each other and
F#m
I don't care what it take
Even if we have to sleep in a tent
Bm
as long as I know that
E
We are close together and that vibrations,
A
uh, from
F#m
Your love and affection and the warmth
Bm
E
of you is there
A
F#m
Can't you see that this opportunity
Bm
E
A
comes once in a lifetime?
F#m
Sometimes I wanna know why you
Bm
living on past time
E
Past time things right before your eyes,
you know?
A
F#m
Mm
Bm
Well, and sometimes it just seem it's
E
impossible for you to see
A
You're, you're not blind,
you know?
F#m
You're just hardheaded,
stubborn, but that's all right
Bm
Those are the sweet things
that makes you you
E
And I wouldn't take nobody
A
else but you
F#m
Bm
E
A
You let my flame go out last night
F#m
Bm
You let my flame go out
E
You know?
A
I, I don't expect like for you
just to, you can sleep
F#m
James Brown or you can sleep your man,
but uh
Bm
Since I'm your man,
E
you can even sleep me, James Brown
You know?
'Cause that's who we're talking
A
about
We're not talking about John
F#m
Doe or maybe
Johnny Terry or somebody,
Bm
or Bobby Byrd
E
We're talking about me and you,
A
or you and
F#m
I if you want to be, you
know, correct
Bm
But I think just saying me and you makes it close,
you know?
E
I can feel you that way
A
That's all right
Just take your time
