TOO TIRED (Mary-Chapin Carpenter)

[Capo 2.]
[Each chord is half of a measure]
D D D D D D D D
[intro]
D D D D
Too tired to fight so I just gave in
C G/B D/A D/A
Last night I slept in your arms again
D D D D
And I felt my heart next to your skin
Am7 Am7 D D
Beatin’ like crazy
D D D D
Been runnin’ from something I can’t explain
C G/B D/A D/A
It ain’t just anger, it ain’t just pain
D D D D
But it goes away when you call my name
Am7 Am7 D D
Callin’ me baby
C G/B D/A D D D D D D D D
But you ain’t no good for a girl like me
I was doin’ fine when I first met you
Swept me off my feet, next thing I knew
I was wonderin’ where you’d gone off to
Leavin’ me lonely
This town’s too small for your kind of games
Pointin’ fingers, namin’ names
But I’m so far gone I’ll take anything
That you can give me
C G/B D/A D D D7 D7
Still you ain’t no good for a girl like me
G G G G D D D D
Last night I felt that I couldn’t stand no more
G G G G A7 A7 A7 A7
But I found myself standin’ right here by your door
Too tired to care that you’re bad for me
My heart says stay, but my head says leave
But I can’t get far when I’m on my knees
Begging you baby
C G/B D/A D D D D D D D D
You ain’t no good for a girl like me
D D D D C G/B D/A D/A

Last night I felt that I couldn’t stand no more
But I found myself standin’ right here by your door
Too tired to fight so I just gave in
Last night I slept in your arms again
And I felt my heart next to your skin
Beatin’ like crazy
Beatin’ like crazy
Am7 Am7 G G G G D D D D C G/B D.
Beatin’ like crazy Hey! [instrumental ending…]
