Cynthia Summers - I Don't Like The Fighting
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[Verse 1]
G C G
My baby don’t like me today
C D G
He says I should just stay out of his way
C
My baby’s unhappy, he’s got some secret gripe with me
G D G
My baby don’t like me today
D C
But if I do go away he cries, "I miss your face
G D G
And I never do mean what I say"
[Verse 2]
G C G
My honey’s got stuff on his mind
C D G
He don’t like the job and he don’t like the grind
C
He wants to be younger or richer and chic
G
He wants an old Jaguar or something antique
D C
But when push comes to shove he’s not that big a fool
G D G D
He knows sugar is sweet, ice-cream is cool
[Chorus]
C
Well, I don’t like the fighting
But the making up’s good
G
Gotta bend like the wind
D
Stand like the wood
[Verse 3]
G C G
I wish it was nice all the time
C D G
I wish all the stories and all of the rhymes
C
Were true like the moon and the stars they invoke
G
All of them heartfelt and breathless and broke
D C
But that’s not the case, I will tell you no lies
G D G D
Sometimes we fall, sometimes we fly
[Chorus]
C
Well, I don’t like the fighting
But the making up’s good
G
Gotta bend like the wind
D
Stand like the wood
[Instrumental]
G C G C D G C G D C G D G D
[Verse 4]
G C G
So, bring me a flower or two
C D G
Bring me some stockings to wear with my shoes
C
Bring me hot tea when the weather turns bold
G
Bring me your love that will never get cold
D C
And count all the leaves on the tree that we grew
G D G D
One plus one, two plus two
[Chorus]
C
Well, I don’t like the fighting
But the making up’s good
G
Gotta bend like the wind
D
Stand like the wood
[Outro]
