Dont Tell Me
G
GI don't know what I have done,
But Im Cmsure I will in the next five seconds,
You Gsee I have a telephone,
When Cmpeople call, they don't stop ringing for me,G  
GLast night was as mystery,
So the Cmwords can create a picture for my mind to see,
GPictures seem to make me sweat,
CmSomething in the morning my sisters told me I would regret.
CmRefuse to believe what D#you just told me,
GRefuse to believe till Ayou tell me slowly,
Or Dbring me down gradually.
GAremsee he under-stands,
He's not Cmafraid to tell me about my late night shenanigans,G  
GSee I was put here for the world to see,
You can't Cmtell me where I'm going or tell me who I'd like to be,  G  
CmI don't intend to D#stop my drinkin',
I Gknow I should and it's Aclever thinkin',
DBut don't tell me...
GI don't know what I have done,
But Im Cmsure I will in the next five seconds,
You Gsee I have a telephone,
When Cmpeople call, they don't stop ringing for me,G  
CmThings they change as D#you get older,
GNo longer a devil Aon each shoulder,
DBut please, please, please... don't tell me.G

You see I have a telephone,

Something in the morning my sisters told me I would regret.

You see I have a telephone,

No longer a devil on each shoulder,
