verse 1 
           E 
There's something 'bout your manner 
     B 
That makes it hard to see 
     C#m               
Just how you take advantage 
     A 
Of a workin' girl like me 
     E 
I've seen you set 'em up 
    B 
And I've seen you take 'em down 
     C#m 
Our love is legal tender 
         B 
For your kind to pass around 


[Refrão]
                E      C#m    B 
Don't want your bed of roses 
                             E  C#m  B      
Don't want no handful of thorns 
                      E     C#m B 
Don't want to be your livin' doll 
                    F#         B 
Don't want to be no woman scorned 
                           A 
I don't want to watch you turn the page 
B                   C#m   A 
When our chapter closes 
                  F# 
No, I'm not gonna lay me down 
B                 C#m    B 
In your bed of roses 

verse 2 
         E  
I've tasted good and bad love 
     B 
In the honky-tonks and bars 
    C#m 
I've settled for the moon 
    A 
When I was reachin' for the stars 
    E 
And though sometimes I have stumbled 
   B 
I've been known to fall 
    C#m 
It was always true love 
        B 
That took me to the wall
