There's nothing left, right left right
Up down up down up down up down

All right all right
verse:
G
You wind me up, you bring me down
Your reputation is all over the town
Am
So long as you come home to me
Bb-Am G
I ain't complaining
G
You fool around, we scream and fight
The way you're treating me, you know it ain't right
Am
But when you're making out with me
Bb-Am G
I ain't complaining
Chorus:
C
It ain't no use, you playing it loose
G
And thinking it don't matter to me
C
It ain't fair at all
D
You only have to call my name
G
and I'll come running to you
(Guitar opening once more)
All right all right
verse:
You're out all night, you sleep all day
When I get home you're going out to play
Oh, woman give me some time and everything's fine
I ain't complaining
verse:
You just don't care, we're in a mess
And the company you keep ain't the best
But when you're lying there with me
I ain't complaining
Chorus:
It ain't no use, you playing it loose
And thinking it don't matter to me
It ain't fair at all
You only have to call my name
And I'll come running to you
Bridge:
G
But when the chips are down
C
A man can only take so much fooling around
G D
And if you don't come home to me
G
I'll be complaining

verse:
There's nothing left, there's nothing right
Our situation ain't looking too bright
'cause I have taken all I'm gonna take
Without complaining
Chorus:
It ain't no use playing it loose
And thinking it don't matter to me
It ain't fair at all
You only have to call my name
And I'll come running to you
Bridge:
But when the chips are down
A man can only take so much fooling around
And if I don't come home to you
You'll be complaining
