"Thing" (_Altered Beast_ Outtake found on "Son of a Beast + 5")
ABm You're my thing DEABm Give you something to hide DEABm Working it's way to the side DEA Taking me, taking me, taking me BmDE Taking it down on you
ABm You're my thing DEABm Watch me fall over you DEABm Through the eyes in the bottom of shoes DEA Making me feel so small, making me BmDE Making me feel so small
Bm I have had it with you F#m And I've got bigger things to do DE Than to keep on crossing your line BmA Just so fine, can't get you off my mind
ABmDG You're my thing, (you're my thing) ABmDG You're my thing. (you're my thing)
ABm You're my thing DEABm Starts with the way that she walked DEABm She never listens to me when I talk DE Tapping me on the shoulder, ABm Trying to create a monster, DE Just so I can hold it.
Bm I have had it with you F#m And I've got bigger things to do DE Than to keep on crossing your line BmA Just so fine, can't get you off my mind
ABmDG You're my thing, (you're my thing) ABmDG You're my thing. (you're my thing)
