Tom: Am
E G Am Em B
[Verse 1]
Em
Was that your face
Walking down 5th Street?
It was on your head
B
But it was looking at your feet
C
Your steely eyes
G
The meanest blue
C B Em
Betrayed a bit of darkness inside you
[Chorus]
N.C. Em
Baby what's wrong? (I'm afraid to ask you)
Baby what's wrong? (Tell me, what did he do?)
Em G C B Em
Is there no loving in the aftermath of a sad, sad song?
[Verse 2]
Em
I see your hands
The way they hide up your sleeves
Your slender little fingers in a tight white fist
B
That was meant for me
C
I'm not the one who hurt you
G B Em
I'm just passing by
C B Em
But I would dry your big wet tears if you let me try
[Chorus]
N.C. Em
Baby what's wrong? (I'm afraid to ask you)
Baby what's wrong? (Tell me, what did he do?)
Em G C B Em
Is there no loving in the aftermath of a sad, sad song?
[Instrumental]
F Em F Em G B Em C B
[Verse 3]
Em
I wanna hear a story
About a girl and boy
With a handful of his hair
B
She tells him, "You are my toy!"
C G B Em
She winds him up so tight that he can barely breathe
C B Em
Lying in a tangled mess that he can never leave
[Chorus]
N.C. Em
Baby what's wrong? (I'm afraid to ask you)
Baby what's wrong? (Tell me, what did he do?)
Em G C B Em
Is there no loving in the aftermath of a sad, sad song?
Em
Baby what's wrong? (I'm afraid to ask you)
Baby what's wrong? (Tell me, what did he do?)
Em G C B Em
Is there no loving in the aftermath of a sad, sad song?
Em G C B Em
Is there no loving in the aftermath of a sad, sad song?
