Verse 1 (guitars continue as above; chords indicated are composites of
all parts):
It’s a shame (sha-ame), the way you mess around with your man
It’s a shame (sha-ame), the way you hurt me
It’s a shame (sha-ame), the way you mess around with your man
I’m sitting all alone by the telephone
Waiting for your call when you don’t call at all
It’s a shame (sha-ame), the way you mess around with your man
It’s a shame (sha-ame), the way you play with my emotions
It’s a shame (sha-ame), the way you mess around with your man
You’re like a child at play on a sunny day
But you play with love and then you throw it away
Bridge:
Why do you use me try to confuse me
How can you stand to be so cruel
Why don’t you free me from this prison
Where I serve my time as your fool
It’s a shame (sha-ame), the way you mess around with your man
It’s a shame (sha-ame), the way you hurt me
It’s a shame (sha-ame), the way you mess around with your man
I try to stay with you show you love so true
But you won’t appreciate the love we try to make
Oh, it’s-a got to be a shame
Got to be a shame (sha-ame), the way you mess around with your man
Ohhh, it’s a shame (sha-ame), the way you hurt me
It’s a shame (sha-ame), the way you mess around with your man
You’ve got my heart in chains and I must complain
I just can’t be content oh, look at (unintelligible)
