I saw him play live about a month ago, so I am pretty sure that this tab is right. I
know the actual names of all the chords but I tabbed them out. The whole song is played
a basic folk strum pattern with thumbing the base note. If you listen to the song, it is
to pick up. This is a great song from a greatly under-appreciated artist.

(chorus)
[C]You don't need to [C/Am]change
a [Am]thing about you[G7] babe, I'm tellin'
[F/G]you, from where I [G]sit you are one of a [C]kind
[C]Relationships, I [C/Am]don't know why,
[Am]they never work out[G7] and make you cry,
But the [F/G]guy that says [G]goodbye to you is out of his [C]mind
verse 1)
[C]I've been down and I [C/Am]need your help, been
[Am]feeling sorry [G7]for myself
Don't [F/G]hesitate to [G]boost my confid[C]ence
[C]I've been lost and I [C/Am]need direction,
[Am]I could use a little [G7]love protection
[F/G]What do you say honey, you [G]come to my defe[C]nse
I'll stand up for you if its what you need, I can
take a punch, I don't mind to bleed
As long as afterwards you feel bad for me
You give me all of your attention, I got
deep desires and it needs quenchin'
I think that's pretty plain for you to see
Well enough about me and more about you,
that'd be the gentlemanly thing to do
I hope you like your men sweet and polite
I thought I was done with telling you,
but I ain't nearly half way through
I've got a few more things that I'd like to say to you tonight
get ready...
(chorus)
You don't need to change
a thing about you babe, I'm telling you
From where I sit your one of a kind
Relationship, I don't know why,
they never work out and they make you cry
But the guy that says good bye to you is out of his mind (mind, yeah)
(verse 2)
Well you always did kind of drive me crazy, and it
pissed me off because I let it pahse me
But I never wanted my time with you to end
Now I am back in town for a day or two, and
mostly I came back just to see you,
I'm leaving now but I don't want to go
(chorus)
You don't need to change
a thing about you babe, I'm telling you
From where I sit your one of a kind
Relationship, I don't know why,
they never work out and they make you cry
But the guy that says good bye to you is out of his mind
