Do What You Gotta' Do
F C Am F Am C F
FGirl, I can understand how it might Cbe
Kinda hard to love a Bbguy like meAm  
I don't blame you much for Bbwanting to be free
I just wanted you to kFnow
I've loved you better Cthan your own kin didBb  
From the very start Amso it's my own fault
What haBbppens to my heart
You see I've always known you'd Fgo
So, you just do Amwhat you gotta Bbdo
My wild sweet lFove
Though it may Dmmean that I'll nAmever kiss

Pay that no mDmind
FiCnd that dappled dBbream of yours
And cAmome on back and sCee me when you BbcanF  
Now I Fknow it'll make you sad
Cmake you feel so bad
BbThey say you don't treat me like Amyou should
They got ways to make you fBbeel no good
I guess they got no way to Fknow
I've had my eyes wide oCpen from the start
And gBbirl you never lied to me
The Ampart of you they'll never sBbee
Is the part you've shown to Fme
Now you just Amdo what you gotta Bbdo
My wild sweet lFove
Though it may Dmmean that I'll nAmever kiss
Those Csweet Bblips agFain
Pay that no Dmmind
ChCase that dappled dBbream of yours
and cAmome on back and sCee me when you cBbanF  
Yeah you just Amdo what you gotta Bbdo
My Cwild sweet loDve
