Intro: There really is no intro to this song, the volume just crescendos right into the verse on the Bm.
But if there was an intro I'd say playing the progression twice through (Bm, A, E, Bm, A, E) would be
realistic.
Verse 1
Bm A E Well if I had a dollar for every time you let me down, Bm A E Stood me up, gave me the run around I'd still spend it all on you Bm A E We used to get so dressed up, just to get so messed up Bm A Chillin in the back of the club all night like we're all alone E But that girl's gone so
Chorus
Bm Give it to me straight babe I can take it A E If there's another guy just tell me, why Bm You've been runnin lately A E Every single day, every single night Bm A, E Give it to me straight babe
*in that whisper-like voice*
What you've been doin and who you've been with
Is there something to it or are you just friends with him (Straight babe)
I aint mad at ya, I'm just askin, just askin
Verse 2
Bm A E Well tell me what you're thinkin, just tell me anything at all Bm A E Say a word or say it all, I gotta hear it straight from you Bm A E We used to get so caught up, getting spent and makin love Bm A The kind of love where we both end up on the bedroom floor E But it aint no more so Bm Give it to me straight babe I can take it A E If there's another guy just tell me, why Bm You've been runnin lately A E Every single day, every single night Bm A, E Give it to me straight babe
*in that whisper-like voice*
What you've been doin and who you've been with
Is there something to it or are you just friends with him
I aint mad at ya, I'm just askin, just askin
(Yeaaahh oooOhhhh)
