Love on the rocks   (midi)

 

     Am – F – B7 – E

 

   Am                               - F

1.       Love on the rocks,      ain't no surprise,

G                                              Em

    just pour me a drink, and I'll tell you some lies,

F                                             B7                                    E    - E7

     got nothin' to lose, so you just sing the blues all the time.

   Am                                  - F

2.       Gave you my heart,      gave you my soul,

G                                               Em

     you left me alone here with nothing to hold,

F                                - B7                                  E     - E7

     yesterday's gone,        now all I want is a smile.

 

A                                                      Dbm

     First, they say they want you, today how they really need you,

G                                                            D                   F       - G

     suddenly you find you're out there, walking in a storm.

A                                                             Dbm

    And when they know they have you, then they really have you,

      D                      Bm                       A

    nothing you can do or say, you've got to leave, just get away.

Dm                          E

    We all know the song.

 

   Am                                          - F

3.       You need what you need,     you can say what you want,

G                                                    Em

     not much you can do when the feeling is gone,

                 F                                    B7                                        E  - E7

  maybe blue skies above, but it's cold when you love's on the rocks.

 

                              Am                               - F

+ CHORUS        4.       Love on the rocks,       ain't no surprise,

G                                              Em

    just pour me a drink, and I'll tell you some lies,

F                                - B7                                  E     - E7 - Am

     yesterday's gone,        now all I want is a smile.
