Shame On Me

• G

Capo on 1st fret 
 
 
Verse 1:  G 
          I'm a fine young man 
                                D 
          That's what my teachers say 
 
          Yeah but who gave them the right 
                                        G 
          To tell me what's not wrong anyway 
 
 
          G 
          I take to heart and listen to their pleas 
                                           D 
          I follow all the paths that they've laid 
 
 
Bridge:   C              G 
          They fooled me once 
          D              G 
          They fooled me twice 
                     C                    G 
          Shame on them for doing me that way 
          D                    G 
          Shame on me just the same 
 
Verse 2:  G 
          Sweet Ann Marie 
                                    D 
          She was the beauty of our school 
 
          I emptied both my pockets 
                                                 G 
          And my money was seduced by her eyes of blue 
 
 
          G 
          She gave me her love and her malady 
                                                   D 
          But it seems that she had more to spread around 
 
Bridge:   C             G 
          She fooled me once 
          D             G 
          She fooled me twice 
                   C                     G 
          Shame on her for doing me that way 
          D 
          Shame on me just the same 
 
Chorus:   D                              G 
          Shame on you for doing me that way 
          C               D                  G 
          Shame on me for thinking you could change 
          D                                 G 
          Shame on you for telling me those lies 
          C                 D              G 
          Shame on me I believed you every time 
 
Verse 3:  G 
          Surgeon general he warns me 
                                    D 
          Don't drink or smoke to excess 
 
          'Cause that alcohol will own you 
                                                   G 
          And the smoking tempts the devil to your chest 
 
 
          G 
          Don't preach to me boy 'cause I won't learn a thing 
                                              D 
          Now fetch me one more smoke before I drown 
 
Bridge:   C             G 
          You fooled me once 
          D             G 
          You fooled me twice 
          C                              G 
          Shame on you for doing me that way 
          D                                G 
          It's always shame on me just the same 
 
Chorus 
 
Ending    G 
          I'm a fine young man 
 
          That's what my teachers say
