D
When I had my wheels in motion
Cm Bb
Never did you think of me
G Bb Cm C
Fine thing, fine state of affairs
D
If I had my mind in motion
Cm Bb
Never would I think of you
G Bb Cm
Cause it`s my fate, fine state of affairs
C
No one cares, no, no
CHORUS (w/RIFF):
D Cm Gm Bb (x4)
Not supposed to want nobody
Not supposed to need nobody (nobody, nobody cares)
You’re not supposed to touch nobody (nobody cares)
Don`t you dare go love nobody
VERSE:
Ooh I miss the real exciters
Anything with anyone
Such a fine thing, fine state of affairs, ooh yeah
Lining up for fast one-nighters
When the final show was done
Such a fine thing, fine state of affairs
No one cares, no, no
CHORUS:
Not supposed to want nobody
Not supposed to need nobody (nobody, nobody cares)
Not supposed to touch nobody (nobody cares)
Don`t you dare go love nobody
SOLO
CHORUS:
You’re not supposed to touch nobody (nobody cares)
Not supposed to love nobody
Fine state, state of affairs
Fine state, state of affairs
Fine state, state of affairs....
