Baby Dont

Patti Scialfa


Tom: A

      A     E                  D
Baby don't put the sugar on me
                     E
Don't talk me up so sweet
      A      E                     D
Baby don't dress me in your kisses
                          E   D
When they're not mine to keep
                      E                 A
Some boys think I'm carved out of stone
                      D
Guess they're not so smart
                   E                  A
'Cause just a few kind words from you
             D
And I fall apart
            A        E
Oh yes I do I fall apart
         A
So baby don't
       E                         D
Come around here tossing matches
                  E
Oh no don't you tempt
         A
No baby don't
          E                      D
Make me steal a little happiness 
               E    D
At anyone's expense
                         E                 A
Do you think that I am carved out of stone
                       D
Now don't you go get smart
                   E                  A
'Cause just a few kind words from you
             D
And I fall apart
       A             E
Oh yes I do I fall apart
D                     E
You better stop this little drama
        Bm                D
Better drop the curtain around it
                E                      Bm
You may not be looking for trouble but boy
                D                           E
You sure have found it (you found it) you found it
         A
So baby don't
    E                        D
Go giving me the green light
                    E
Oh no don't you do that
         A
No baby don't
             E                      D
'Cause that ring around your finger
                         E
This time won't hold me back
D                          E              A
I could pretend that I am carved out of stone
              D
So we never start
                E                  A
But just a few kind words from you
             E
And I fall apart

So baby don't
Oh no no baby don't
Oh oh oh no baby don't
