Clothesline - The All-American Rejects

Intro: Em D Em D Verse: Em I should know better than to mess with you D When I know only that the best will do Em D And when you whisper to me softly, tenderly, and sweetly "Nothing more that you can do" Verse: Em D I think I lied about the people that we used to be Young, dumb, and pretty Em Sinners in the city Ain't it just a pity D You could put me out to dry? Chorus: G You left me hanging on a clothesline Bm D Ooh, and I'm just whipping the wind A When you're standing on a land mine. Wait for the explosion G You left me hanging on a clothesline Bm D Come on. I'm just whipping the wind A Healing in the sunshine. Em D Em D Until we're close again

Verse: Em D I'm running, while you're standing in place Em I know that you're worth more than the chase D You're slapping the smile off my face I guess I like wasting time Em And you're changing with the weather D Whenever we're together Em I still like dancing in the rain And then the winds change D Know I'll never be the same Chorus: G You left me hanging on a clothesline Bm D Ooh, and I'm just whipping the wind A When you're standing on a land mine. Wait for the explosion G You left me hanging on a clothesline Bm D Come on. I'm just whipping the wind A Healing in the sunshine. Until we're close again Em F#m G A Em F#m G A Bridge: Em Love me or leave me F#m Just say that you need me G A Or don't, and I'll just be waving Em Lost in your breeze F#m And all that I need A Is your saving Chorus: G Bm Don't leave me hanging on a clothesline. D Ooh, and I'm just whipping the wind A When you're standing on a land mine. Don't wait for the explosion G Bm You left me hanging on a clothesline. D Come on. I'm just whipping the wind A And I'll be standing in the sunshine Until we're close again Chorus: G Bm You left me hanging on a clothesline D Ooh, and I'm just whipping the wind A When you're standing on a land mine Wait for the explosion G Bm You left me hanging on a clothesline D Come on. I'm just whipping the wind A And I'll be healing in the sunshine
