typing of lyrics from: sbigelow@dante.nmsu.edu (Scott Bigelow)
alternate chords from Derek Chubry (b7k5@musicb.mcgill.ca)
Derek`s note: I downloaded Scott`s version of the song and found that some of
the chords didn`t sound quite right. I am offering another way way
of playing the song. The voicings of chords I suggest aren`t exactly as on
the CD, but are ones I thought sounded nice. If they prove to be too t me
awkward, just play the straight chord (e.g., B instead of B/D).
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or comments.
Enjoy!

After all the bullshit I`ve heard its refreshing not to see
D Dmin A
I don`t have to pretend she doesn`t expect it from me
D Fmin
So don`t tell me I haven`t been good to you
D Fmin
Don`t tell me I haven`t been there for you
D A E
Just tell me why nothing is good enough
Hey little girl would you like some candy your mama said its ok
The door is open come on outside no I can`t come out today
Its not the wind that cracked your shoulder and threw you to the ground
Who`s there that makes you so afraid you`re shaken to the bone
You know I don`t understand you deserve so much more than this
So don`t tell me why he`s never been good to you
Don`t tell me why he`s never been there for you
I`ll tell you why is simply not good enough
So just let me try & I will be good to you
Just let me try & I will be there for you
I`ll show you why you`re so much more than good enough
P.S.: The day I worked on this, it was 30 degrees Celsius and really humid.
I started to work on the solo, but was getting too hot. If anyone is
interested in learning it, let me know and I`ll work on it.
