Album: Feed Your Family
Capo on 2
(I don't know how to Tab but the opening riff is just the G and B strings on the 3/4 fret, slid down to
1/2 fret and then plucked open..if that makes sense.. just play around on those and you'll get it)
C
Perfumed letters of an earlier time.
G
Memories of ladies now lay far behind.
D
Too many lovers makes her heart go blind.
G
Well, I should've known better.
C
I was so foolish and I chased the sun.
G
Young once and fine, now my days are done.
D
Too many lovers makes you on the run.
G
Well, I should've known better.
(Chorus)
C
Well, I tried too hard and spoke too soon.
G
Oh, I got too drunk and shot the moon.
D
All the while I'd look at you and you'd say,
C G
Oh, you should've known better baby.
C G
Oh, you should've known better baby.
C G D
Oh, you should've known better .... Oh baby, yes I do
G
Well darlin', now I do.
C
I jump from roof tops both far and wide.
G
I stole their kisses and I robbed them blind.
D
Leaving lovers in a bed of lies.
G
Well, I should've known better.
C
I was a lion tamer long ago.
G
A veteran in the art of fooling ghosts
D
Much too lonely for their hearts to know.
G
Well I should've known better.
(Repeat Chorus)
C
Now, an old man and nothing more.
G
Much too tired, oh, to even scores.
D
My wife, she left me back in '94.
G
Well I should've known better.
C
And as I sit within my shallow grave.
G
Looking for answers, oh, I should've saved.
D
Just out of heaven's reach, amazing grace.
G
Well I should've known better.
(Repeat Chorus)
(Repeat end of Chorus)
Oh, you should've known better baby.
Oh, you should've known better baby.
Oh, you should've known better.
Oh baby, now I do.
Well baby, now I do.
