The Allman Brothers - Whipping Post

INTRO
Verse
[A]Ive[Bm] bee[C]n r[Bm]un down
Ive been lied to
And I dont know why I let that mean woman make me a fool
She took all my money
Wrecked my new car
And now shes with one of my good time buddies drinking in some cross town bar.

Pre Chorus
sometimes I feel
sometimes I feel
Chorus
[A]
Like I've been tied to the whipping post
Oh Lord I [A]feel like I'm dying.
Bridge
Verse 2:
[A]My [Bm]frie[C]nds[Bm] tell me
That I've been such a fool
And I have to stand by and take it, babe all for loving you.
I drown myself in sorrow.
Cause I look at what you've done.
But nothing seems to change. The bad times stay the same, and I can't run.
