As recorded by Ben Harper & The Innocent Criminals (From the 2007 Album LIFELINE) [Intro] G Bm G Bm G [Verse 1]
G
She eats nectarines with honey and spends her daddy's money so easy

G
She cuts cherry pie while she looks you in the eye so easy

G
The innocent naivety of hairless cheek

G
The politics of generosity make me weak
[Chorus]
G                             D
You put it on me then left me lonely

           Em   D            G
You put it on me, you put it on me
[Verse 2]
G
There's an assassin out to get me and they claim that she's never missed

G
The one with an ex-lover whom she claims to have never kissed

G
We turned at twenty paces for love as a duel and we stood as still as stone

G
I can't imagine that this is in the best interest of flesh and bone
[Chorus]
G                             D
You put it on me then left me lonely

           Em  F             G
You put it on me, you put it on me
[Guitar Solo] G [Verse 3]
G
I've been living in the city for much too long

G
There's a neon sign in my mind flashing right and wrong

G
I can't afford your company, I spent my money buying time

G
I was lost out in hte desert while you were busy swimming in wine
[Chorus]
G                          D
You put it on me then left me lonely

Em    D      G                  D
  You put it on me then left me lonely

        Em  F   G
You put it on me, you put it on me
[Outro] G
