Intro:
[D7]
Verse 1:
If you [Am]want, something to [D7]play with,
Go and find your-self a [G]toy.[Gmaj7][G6]
Baby my [E7]time is too ex-[Am]pensive,[D7]
And I'm not your little [G]boy.[Gmaj7][G6][G7]
Chorus 1:
[Bm] If you are [Em]serious,
[Bm] Don't play with my heart;
It makes me [Em]furious.
[Bm] But if you want me to [C]love you,
Then baby I [D]will, [C/D]girl you know I [D]will.
Verse 2:
[D7] Tell it like it [Am]is,
Don't be as[D7]hamed,
To let your conscience be your [G]guide.[Gmaj7][G6]
But I [E7]know deep [Am]down inside of me,
I believe you [D7]love me;
For-get your foolish [G]pride[Gmaj7].[G6][G7]
Chorus 2:
[Bm] Life is too short to have [Em]sorrow,
[Bm] We may be here today [Em]and gone tomorrow.
[Bm] You might as well get what you [C]want,
So go on and [D]live, [D/C]girl go on and [D]live.
Verse 3:
[D7] Tell it like it [Am]is,
Don't be as[D7]hamed,
Let your conscience be your [G]guide.[Gmaj7][G6]
But I [E7]know deep [Am]down inside of me,
I believe you [D7]love me;
For-get your foolish [G]pride[Gmaj7].[G6][G7]
Baby my [A7/C#]time is too ex-[G7/D]pensive,[Dm][G7]
And I'm [Dm]not [G7]your little [C]boy.[Cmaj7][C6]
[G7] Tell it like it [Am]is...
