Cheryl Wheeler - Addicted
INTRO:   A    D   G    D    A    D    G  A  
She says she hates to sleep aD/F#lone, but she'll do it toGnightA  
She wants to grab her teleD/F#phone, but she knows it ain't Gright
So if he won't Ccall, she'll surFvive
And if he don't Bbcare, she'll get Dmby
Climb into G/Bbed, Gbury her Chead
And Fcry__C_, GcryA  
From the beginning he was D/F#all anyone could have GbeenA  
They were delirious with D/F#love, they were certain to Gwin
Now he's breaking Cplans more and Fmore
And he's leaving Bbnotes on her Dmdoor
"Took a G/Btrip out of Gtown, couldn't turn this one Cdown"
He said, "I Fguess I should have Ctold you beGfore"A  
CHORUS:
She says she feels like she's adDmdicted to a Dm7real bad Gthing
Always sitting, waiting Cwondering if the phone will Fring
She knows she bounces like a Dmyo-yo when he Dm7pulls her Gstring
                                 Am  G-C  
It hurts to feel like such a fool
She wants to Atell him not to Dmcall or come aDm7round aGgain
He doesn't need her now at Call the way that she needs Fhim
She's on the edge about to Dmfall from leaning Dm7out and Gin
And she don't know which way to Ammove, Goh FmyG  A  
She wants to be fair, she couldn't D/F#say he was ever unGkindA  
But if she could bear to walk aD/F#way, she thinks he wouldn't Gmind
'Cause he just keeps himCself so aFpart
And there's no one Bbelse in her Dmheart
So she's taking a G/Bdive from an Gemotional Chigh
And Fcoming Cdown GhardA  
She's determined to try, but she'll still give D/F#in when he gives her a GcallA  
And she'll ask herself why, but in the D/F#end it won't matter at Gall
Sure, she could sit at Chome, stay inFside
And sleep aBblone with her Dmpride
And as she walks out her G/Bdoor, she feels as Gweak as beCfore
With Fnothing Cto GhideA  
CHORUS:
She says she feels like she's adDmdicted to a Dm7real bad Gthing
Always sitting, waiting Cwondering if the phone will Fring
She knows she bounces like a Dmyo-yo when he Dm7pulls her Gstring
                                 Am  G-C  
It hurts to feel like such a fool
She wants to Atell him not to Dmcall or come aDm7round aGgain
He doesn't need her now at Call the way that she needs Fhim
She's on the edge about to Dmfall from leaning Dm7out and Gin
                                Am  G-C  
She don't know which way to move
CHORUS:
She says she feels like she's adDmdicted to a Dm7real bad Gthing
Always sitting, waiting Cwondering if the phone will Fring
She knows she bounces like a Dmyo-yo when he Dm7pulls her Gstring
Hurts to feel like such a Amfool, woah woahF  
And she don't know which way to Ammove, woah woahF  
                                 Am  G-C  
It hurts to feel like such a fool

Cheryl Wheeler - Addicted

A D G D A D G A

INTRO:

D/F# G A

She says she hates to sleep alone, but she'll do it tonight

D/F# G

She wants to grab her telephone, but she knows it ain't right

C F

So if he won't call, she'll survive

Bb Dm

And if he don't care, she'll get by

G/B G C

Climb into bed, bury her head

F C G A

And cry___, cry

D/F# G A

From the beginning he was all anyone could have been

D/F# G

They were delirious with love, they were certain to win

C F

Now he's breaking plans more and more

Bb Dm

And he's leaving notes on her door

G/B G C

"Took a trip out of town, couldn't turn this one down"

F C G A

He said, "I guess I should have told you before"

CHORUS:

Dm Dm7 G

She says she feels like she's addicted to a real bad thing

C F

Always sitting, waiting wondering if the phone will ring

Dm Dm7 G

She knows she bounces like a yo-yo when he pulls her string

Am G C

It hurts to feel like such a fool

A Dm Dm7 G

She wants to tell him not to call or come around again

C F

He doesn't need her now at all the way that she needs him

Dm Dm7 G

She's on the edge about to fall from leaning out and in

Am G F G A

And she don't know which way to move, oh my

D/F# G A

She wants to be fair, she couldn't say he was ever unkind

D/F# G

But if she could bear to walk away, she thinks he wouldn't mind

C F

'Cause he just keeps himself so apart

Bb Dm

And there's no one else in her heart

G/B G C

So she's taking a dive from an emotional high

F C G A

And coming down hard

D/F# G A

She's determined to try, but she'll still give in when he gives her a call

D/F# G

And she'll ask herself why, but in the end it won't matter at all

C F

Sure, she could sit at home, stay inside

Bb Dm

And sleep alone with her pride

G/B G C

And as she walks out her door, she feels as weak as before

F C G A

With nothing to hide

CHORUS:

Dm Dm7 G

She says she feels like she's addicted to a real bad thing

C F

Always sitting, waiting wondering if the phone will ring

Dm Dm7 G

She knows she bounces like a yo-yo when he pulls her string

Am G C

It hurts to feel like such a fool

A Dm Dm7 G

She wants to tell him not to call or come around again

C F

He doesn't need her now at all the way that she needs him

Dm Dm7 G

She's on the edge about to fall from leaning out and in

Am G C

She don't know which way to move

CHORUS:

Dm Dm7 G

She says she feels like she's addicted to a real bad thing

C F

Always sitting, waiting wondering if the phone will ring

Dm Dm7 G

She knows she bounces like a yo-yo when he pulls her string

Am F

Hurts to feel like such a fool, woah woah

Am F

And she don't know which way to move, woah woah

Am G C

It hurts to feel like such a fool
