  E               E7  A                   E     E7
Before you accuse me,  take a look at yourself
  A                  A7                  E     E7
Before you accuse me, take a look at yourself
    B7
You say I've been buying another woman clothes
    A7                             E    B7
But you've been talking to someone else

  E           E7   A                           E     E7
I called your mama  'bout three or four nights ago
  A               A7                           E     E7
I called your mama 'bout three or four nights ago
     B7
Your mama said, "Son
A7                        E     B7
Don't call my daughter no more."

  E               E7  A                   E      E7
Before you accuse me,  take a look at yourself
  A                  A7                  E     E7
Before you accuse me, take a look at yourself
    B7
You say I've been buying another woman clothes
    A7                             E    B7
But you've been talking to someone else

E                  E7   A                     E       E7 
Come on back home, baby; try my love one more time
A                       A7                    E      E7 
Come on back home, baby; try my love one more time
B7
You've been gone away so long
A7                        E    B7
I'm just about to lose my mind

  E               E7  A                   E     E7
Before you accuse me,  take a look at yourself
  A                  A7                  E     E7
Before you accuse me, take a look at yourself
    B7
You say I've been buying another woman clothes
    A7                             E    B7
But you've been talking to someone else
