You say let's go to the rodeo And see some cowboy fall Sometimes it seems to me you've got No sympathy at all You keep on going on and on about how you're so free You'd be happy as you could be If you belonged to me
C
It ain't easy to get to you
Em
But there must be some kind of a way
C
If only two could look to you
G
D
C
For only one moment of each day
You're saying that you're all washed up Got nothing else to give Seems like you would've figured out How long you have to live You could feel like a baby again, sitting on your daddy's knee Oh how happy you could be If you belonged to me The guy you're with is a ruthless pimp Everybody knows Every cent he takes from you Goes straight up his nose You look so sad, you're going so mad, any fool can see You'd be happy as you could be If you belonged to me

A
When I woke up this morning the place was such a wreck
A
I couldn't reach the bathroom thought I'd better clear the deck
D
I tried to call the lawyer and ask him what to do
A
He referred me to his doctor who referred me back to you
E
D
And when you checked the manual you kept inside the case

It said put it in a cool dry place
I drove around the city looking for a room That was high above the water where my things could be in tune There was no one to help me nobody even cared I had to go through hell to get those things up there I paid my first subscription then I joined the idle race And they said store it in a cool dry place
D
I got guitars, basses, amplifiers and drums
A
Accordions and mandolins and things that sometimes hum
D
Cymbals and harmonicas, capos by the score
F
E
And lots of things in boxes laying all around the floor
Some places they get mildew and others get too hot Some places are so damp that everything you got just rots All kinds of condensation, direct result of rain There's not much compensation when everything's been stained Some have sentimental value that cannot be erased Go store it in a cool dry place
Instrumental verse
We got solids and acoustics and some with flowered boards And some are trimmed in leather and some are made with gourds There's organs and trombones and reverbs we can use Lots of DX-7s and old athletic shoes I bought a great big building, it took up one whole block I made an inventory of all the things in stock The list was getting longer, I was up all night I used up all my pencils but I went in spite
E
D
The blurry of my vision, the sweat upon my face
E
D
I've got to put this stuff away, I mustn't leave a trace
E
D
The landlord's breathing down my neck, he says it's a disgrace
