F
So tired of this heavy load.
Bb
I've been carrying it for so long.
Dm            Bb
I don't know what it wants with me.
C
Lord, please let me be.


F                                Bb
Rolling dice on my hotel room bed.
F                                                Bb
"Man, it feels so nice to love some one" she said.
C                      Bb                           F
"Cause when the evening comes I'm scared to be bad all by myself."
C                      Bb                        F
And I know exactly how it feels to be by myself.


F
And now she's singing,
F                                   Bb
"Happiness always scared me half to death.
F                                    Bb
Never had myself no lovin' to caress."
C                        Bb                                  F
Little darling stop those tears and dry your eyes, I'm a be right here.
C                          Bb                               F
And I'd really love to stay tonight, if you'll have me here.

F   Bb
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
F                               C
Little girl you know I love you so.
Dm                               Bb
Let's take it easy now and simmer down.
C                               F
Little girl, let's take the long way home.    <- 2x


--G  O--
(F - Bb) 2x
(C - Bb - F) 2x


F   Bb
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
F                               C
Little girl you know I love you so.
Dm                               Bb
Let's take it easy now and simmer down.
C                               F
Little girl, let's take the long way home.    <- 4x
