Em            Am            G
  Melinda was mine 'til the time

         Em         F#m
  that I found her

G         Am   F#m
  holdin' Jim

G            Am
  and lovin' him.

Em               Am
  Then Sue came along,

           G
  loved me strong,

             Em          F#m
  that's what I thought,

G            Am    F#m
  but me and Sue,

G          Am
  that died, too.
Chorus:
G                   C
  Don't know that I will

        G         D
  but until I can find me,

                C
  a girl who'll stay and

        G           D
  won't play games behind me.
(do main riff ‘til verse 2 starts) I'll be what I am, a solitary man, a solitary man, a solitary man. Verse 2:
Em               Am         G              Em          F#m
  I've had it to here being where love's a small world,

G             Am     F#m
  a part time thing,

G         Am
  a paper ring.

Em                 Am
  I know it's been done

         G            Em         F#m
  havin' one girl who loves you,

G          Am    F#m
  right or wrong,

G         Am
  weak or strong.
