[Verse]
       C   Em  
I been run down
            C      
Lord I been lied to
Em       D7            
■  And I don't know why
Em                         D     Am   C Em
I let that mean woman make out a fool ■ ■ 
             G  Am7   C
She took all my money ■
           Am7    
Wrecked my new car


[Chorus]
               Bm7       C        D      
Now she's with one of my goodtime buddies
        Bm7 Am7         Bm7            C  
And she is  drinking in some crosstown bar
          D     
Sometimes I feel
          Em    
Sometimes I feel
       G    Am  
Like I been tied
       D        C   
To the whippin' post
G Am7         D             C
■ Tied to the whippin' post ■
Am             D        C   
■  Tied to the whippin' post

Good Lord I feel like a rastaman

[Verse]
G          D      
My friends tell me

■  That I been such a fool ■   ■ 
                     Am              
I had to stand there and take it baby
               Em 
All for loving you
D7    Am               Em
Drown myself in sorrow ■

As I look at what you done ■ 


[Chorus]
Am                     
Nothin' seems to change
     Am                     
That bad times stay the same
    Bm      C  
And I can't run
          D     
Sometimes I feel
Em              
Sometimes I feel

Like I  ■  been tied
       D        C
