3.  Please Do Not Go

Easy G C D progression...think slow dub
(Verse)

  G                                   C      D
Tell you man I'm stuck on this lovely girl 
C                                        C      D
of course to me u'know she mean all the world 
C                           C     D
But then she like another guy 
C                                  C       D
I fall down dead she never see the tears I cry 

(chorus)

G                         C
please please please do not go (repeat)


(verse 2)

C                         G
How long can the days go on 
C                       G
when my love is so strong 
C                            G
and I know I cannot tell a lie 
C                  D
I wanna see him go bye 

bye bye bye bye bye bye bye 


(verse 3)

C                       G    D
now I wonder what she would say 
C                           G     D
if I told her that I felt this way 
C                             G    D
y'know it might make her turn either way 
C                          G    D
so all I can do is patiently pray 
C              G    D
pray pray pray pray 

C                            G    D
tell you man I'm stuck on this lovely girl 
C                                       G    D
and y'know I could travel all over the whole world

believe me there'd be some things that I wouldn't miss
       B5 (stop abruptly)

but something won't let me make love to you

Bass Solo:

and say goodnight

(with Figure C Bass Line)
Mo my momma momma mo my mum
Have you kept your eye your eye on your son
I know you've had problems your not the only one
but when your sugar left he left you on the run

Mo my momma momma mo my mum
take a look now what your boy has done
he's walking around like he's number one
he went downtown and he got him a gun

Don't shoot shoot shoot that thing at me
You know you got my sympathy
but don't shoot shoot shoot that thing at me

Don't shoot shoot shoot that thing at me
You know you got my sympathy
but don't shoot shoot shoot that thing at me

(with Figure C Bass Line)
In your broken down kitchen at the top of the stairs
Can I mix in with your affairs
Share a smoke
Make a joke
Grasp and reach for a leg of hope

Words to memorize
Words hypnotize
Words make my mouth exercise
Words all fail the magic prize
Nothing I can say when I'm in your thighs

Mo my momma momma mo my mother
I would love to love you lover
The city's restless it's ready to pounce
it go here in your bedroom ounce for ounce

Mo my momma momma mo my mother
I would love to love you lover
The city's restless it's ready to pounce
it go here in your bedroom ounce for ounce

(with Figure A Bass Line)
Said I'm giving you a decision to make
Things to lose, things to take
Just as she was about ready to cut it up
She said wait a minute honey I'm gonna Add it up

I'm gonna Add it up
Add it up
See what you got you gotta
Add it up
Day after day
I get angry and I will say
that the day is in my sight
when I take a bow and say goodnight
goodnight

(riff 1)
Y'know that I want your loving,
but my logic tells me that it aint never gonna happen,
and then my defenses say I didn't want it anyway,
but you know sometimes I'm a liar.

(riff 2)
Could you ever want me to love you?
Could you ever want me to care?

(back to riff 1....get it?)
Disregard my nervousness,
please ignore my vacant stares,
'cause just what I've been through,
is nothing like where I'm going to.

Give me some sign to pursue,
a promise,
and you're unhappy.
...This is only a guess...

Do you know what it's like to hate
when it's way down deep inside?
Oh god, I hate what's been done to my life.
I could rule the pain,
I could rule the night,
or would It ruin my salvation,
ruin my mind.
Rule your pains,
rulers of the night,
ruin your salvation,
ruin your mind.

Ba da DADA BOP bop bop DADA BOP da da da? (repeat :>)

Y'know that I want your loving,
but then Mr Logic tells me that it aint never gonna happen,
and then my defenses say I didn't want it anyway,
but you know sometimes I'm a liar.
Could you ever want me to love you?
Could you ever want me to care?
Disregard my nervousness,
please ignore my vacant stares,
'cause just what I've been through,
is nothing like where I'm going to.

Give me some sign to pursue,
a promise,
a promise,
and you're unhappy,
and you're unhappy,
and you're unhappy,
and you're unhappy.
...This is only a guess...
