PLEASE DON’T TELL ME ANY MORE

capo @ 3 in G
James Michael Taylor 09 26/7 14

VERSE ONE - You said you knew the story would upset me G
That you’d resolved to kept it to yourself G D
You said you knew how hard it would hit me D
You said that you had told nobody else D G

VERSE TWO - I see now that you’ve gone back to drinking G
You slur your words and run your pretty mouth G7 C
Contrary to what you may be thinking C G
I’d be over all of this if I knew how D G

CHORUS ONE - You had to go and tell me G C
It’s so like you to spill the beans C G
What happened to your tender mercies G D
You know exactly what I mean (it tortures me) D G

You just had to go and tell me
That you saw them at the store
picking out a sack of oranges
Please don’t tell me any more

VERSE THREE - Instrumental

VERSE FOUR - (And now you) say you saw them later at the Stables
They sang a duet and he sang off key
You say it looks like she has robbed a cradle
And somehow you think that should comfort me

BRIDGE - I tremble now from too much information Em C
Try to hold myself together you can see Em C
The less I know the more the memories wither B C
Like leaves in Autumn falling from the trees G D

CHORUS TWO - You had to go and tell me
You couldn’t let it be
As it was it always shall be
You’re still so good at hurting me

I say that I no longer suffer
I swept that heartache out the door
But I choke up and I smother
Please don’t tell me any more

If I no longer suffer
What are all these sad songs for
And why do I choke up and smother
Please don’t tell me any more
