          MESSED AROUND.    
        E
Intro = 
E
She wants to give up love for good.
She kicks a fence and splits some wood.
              A
She cries her eyes out in the rain.
              E
She swears out loud and so again
             B   A     E
Chorus =     She feels messed around.
E
She takes her coat off as it pours.
The passing daytime she ignores.
             A
She with the problem on the bench.
             E
And with her heal she digs a trench.
             B   A     E
Chorus =     She feels messed around.
E
She rips her skirt and tears her dress.
Climbing over his garden fence.
           A
But on the morning as tears still fall.
             E
She’s in the mood for his love at all.
             B   A     E
Chorus =     She feels messed around.
Mid 8  
E   B                    A
The door won’t shut, her match won’t light.
    B                  A
The bulb went out, her skirts to tight.
B   A     E
She feels messed around.
E   B                    A
The words don’t match, her heart won’t heal.
    B                  A
The phone won’t pip, her fruit won’t peal.
B   A     E
She feels messed around.
         E  A  E  B  A  E     E  A  E  B  A  E
Instro =                  /                    
Mid 8 (2)
A                             B
She left herself open for him all the time.
A                       B
And always kept off his cloud.
A                        B
All the kings horses and all the kings men.
E                  B
Have come to mess around.
E
She wants to give up love for good.
She kicks a fence and splits some wood.
              A
She cries her eyes out in the rain.
              E
She swears out loud and so again. 
Chorus =     
             B   A     E
             She feels messed around.
             B   A     E
             She feels messed around.   
             B   A     E
             She feels messed around.
