    Dadd4       C
Go away from my window

Go at your own chosen speed

I'm not the one you want, babe

    Dadd4   D/F#    G
I'm not the one you need

You say you're looking for someone

Never weak but always strong

To protect you and defend you

Whether you are right or wrong

Someone to open each and every door
[Chorus]
             G
But it ain't me, babe

C                    G
No, no, no, it ain't me, babe

         C     D/F#        G
It ain't me you're looking for, babe
[Verse 2]
   Dadd4            C
Go lightly from the ledge, babe

   Dadd4   C      G
Go lightly on the ground

    Dadd4           C
I'm not the one you want, babe

I will only let you down

    Dadd4              C
You say you're lookin' for someone

Who will promise never to part

Someone to close his eyes for you

    Dadd4            D/F#
Someone to close his heart

    C                         D/F#
Someone who'd die for you and more
[Chorus]
             G
But it ain't me, babe

It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe
[Verse 3]
   Dadd4            C
Go melt back in the night, babe

Dadd4        C          G
Everything inside me is stone

        Dadd4           C
There's nothing in here moving

    Dadd4  D/F#     G
And anyway I'm not alone

    Dadd4              C
You say you're lookin' for someone

            Dadd4            C
To pick you up each time you fall

   Dadd4          C
To gather flowers constantly

       Dadd4              D/F#
And to come each time you call

  C                               D/F#
A lover for your life and nothing more
[Chorus]
             G
But it ain't me, babe

C                    G
No, no, no, it ain't me, babe

      C      D/F#          G
It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe
