[Verse]
C Dm
Oh Jeremiah, tell me what have you done
C
you took all the love she gave, you took it all and away you run
Dm
you cant keep all your love bottled inside, so you give it away to women
almost a different woman every single night
C
Well you think that you can hide from the morning light
[Chorus]
F G C
you forgot about sweet Sue
F G C
and the promises you said you'd do
F G C
she's gonna put you back up on the shelf
F G C
she does better by herself
[Verse]
C Dm
Oh, Jeremiah, place the ring upon her finger
C
don't leave it at home again tonight, or in the pocket of your blue jeans
C Dm
you say this time tomorrow you'll be a different man, you'll change for the better
C
I hope you keep your promises, I hope you keep them, my sweet Jeremiah
[Chorus]
F G C
you forgot about sweet Sue
F G C
and the promises you said you'd do
F G C
she's gonna put you back up on the shelf
F G C
she does better by herself
[Outro]
Dm G C Em Am
but she'll make sure to keep all the dust away from you
Dm G C
you're like wine, you get sweeter with time
