Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
To get the most out of this song, focus on the root notes.
I mostly hit the lowest string and occasionally accent with the others. Experiment
with runs as you see fit.
Riff #1 is super simple:
A ---0-1
E 1-3--
Opening is F and Bb, with a run similar to Riff #1 but ending on a C note (3rd
fret on A string) before returning to the chords.
F
Well, ya done me wrong so many times and made blue,
I don't remember what I ever saw in you,
A
And here ya go again, hurtin' me,
It's plain to see that I'll always be
Bb
Sick and tired of all your lyin' and your cheatin'
And the way you been mistreatin' me.
G
So let me tell ya, friend,
Bb
You'll never get the chance to break my heart again.
F C F (Riff #1)
Furthermore, furthermore, on top of that,
(no chords)
I don't love ya anyway.
Ya told me that you'd always love and treat me fair,
But lately, baby, seems like you don't even care
About me anymore, you slam the door on me,
Made me as mad as I can be,
And I'm not gonna take it anymore
Of bein' fooled again like I was before,
'Cause, baby, this is it, I quit.
You can just forget that we ever met,
And furthermore, yes, furthermore, on top of that,
I don't love ya anyway.
Bb F
No, baby, I don't love you anyway.
C F
I just realized that fact, as a matter of fact, today.
Bb F
And anybody who would treat me like you do
G
Don't deserve a tear, not a frown, not a sigh,
C
Not a single boo-hoo yo-de-la-de-whoo.
So get on outta here, and go away and let me be,
And leave me by myself and set me free.
I wanna be alone and on my own so get gone.
Don't you even telephone.
Hit the trail, move it out,
Adios, arivedercci, ciao ciao,
Don'tcha ever try to come back, auf Wiedersehen,
You know what that means? That's bye-bye.
And furthermore, furthermore, on top of that.
[raspberry]
Bb F
He don't love you anyway, that's what he said.
C Bb
No, he don't love you anyway, so this is the end.
There you go. A wonderfully sad tune from an interesting musician.
