Chord/Tab song: Pick 'em Up and Lay 'em Down

Pull My Chain



Capo 2 fret



Intro: Em C D (2x)

Verse 1:

[Em]She said the man's goin' home with me

[D]She told the bar she was takin' all bets

[Em]Well never trust a woman drinkin' whiskey

That [D]lights her own cigarette

[G] I started callin' her ba[D]by, temptation was drivin' me wild

[G] I think the only thing that saved me

[D] It's just not my style


Chorus:

[G]'Cause I'm not the [C]kind of man that [D]goes out just lookin' for a woman

[G]I like the [C]price you pay to keep [D]passion on solid ground

[G]I'm not the [C]kind of man that [D]holds out on a need for nothin'

[G]I'm as [C]lonely as any [D]man around

I just don't like to pick 'em up and lay 'em down[Em]

[C]Lay 'em [D]down

Pick 'em up and lay 'em down

Riff: Em C D

Verse 2:

So we went from [Em]bottoms up to coffee cups

[D]A corner booth where the lights got dim

[Em]We started talkin' 'bout gettin' real close

[D]About how, and about when

[G]It started rainin' harder and harder

[D] I got up and with a thoughtful smile

[G] I said, "Honey, if that ain't thunder and lightnin'

[D] It just ain't worthwhile"

Chorus:

[G]I'm not the [C]kind of man that [D]goes out just lookin' for a woman

[G]I like the [C]price you pay to keep [D]passion on solid ground

[G]I'm not the [C]kind of man that [D]holds out on a need for nothin'

[G]I'm as [C]lonely as any [D]man around

I just don't like to pick 'em up and lay 'em down[Em]

[C]Lay 'em [D]down, down, down, down, down

Bridge:

[G]I turned around and gave her one last smile

[D]And thought about one long kiss

[G]But that would be takin' it too far baby

[D]And maybe something I couldn't resist

Chorus:

[G]I'm not the [C]kind of man that [D]goes out just lookin' for a woman

[G]I like the [C]price you pay to keep [D]passion on solid ground

[G]I'm not the [C]kind of man that [D]holds out on a need for nothin'

[G]I'm as [C]lonely as any [D]man around

I just don't like to pick 'em up and lay 'em down[Em]

[C]Lay 'em [D]down

Pick 'em up and lay 'em down[Em]

[C]Lay 'em [D]down


Outro: (Repeat Intro throughout)

If it ain't about thunder and lightnin'

It just ain't worthwhile

Lord knows it just ain't my style

Pick 'em up and lay 'em down, down, down, down, down

Pick 'em up and lay 'em down
