IntroAG9DAG9DVerseAG9D
I don't want to talk about it to you
AG9D
I'm not an open book that you can rifle through
ABm7G9Em7
The cold hard truth that you'll see right to
DAG9
I'm just a basket case without you
AG9D
He's not a magic man or a perfect fit
AG9D
But had a steady hand and I got used to it
ABm7G9Em7
And a glass cage heart and invited me in
DAG9
And now I'm just a basket case without him
ChorusDG9
You're begging for the truth
GmD ( G/DA/D )
So I'm saying it to you
G9
I've been saving your place
Gm
And what good does it do
DAG9
Now I'm just a basket case
DAG9
Now I'm just a basket case
VerseAG9D
I don't say much and it'll stay that way
AG9D
You got a steel train touch and I'm just a track you lay
ABm7G9Em7
So I'll stay right here underneath you
DAG9
I'm just a basket case and that's what we do
ChorusDG9
You're begging for the truth
GmD ( G/DA/D )
So I'm saying it to you
DG9
I've been saving your place
Gm
And what good does it do
DAG9
Now I'm just a basket case
BridgeD
Won't somebody come on in and tug at my seams
A
Oh send your armies in of robbers and thieves
BmG9D/F#G9ABm7A7/C#
To steal the state I'm in I don't want it anymore
ChorusDG9
You're begging for the truth
GmD (G/DA/D )
So I'm saying it to you
DG9
I've been saving your place
Gm
And what good does it do
DAG9
Now I'm just a basket case
DAG9
Now I'm just a basket case
DAG9
Now I'm just a basket case
DAG9
Now I'm just a basket case
