Chorus
G+G C majorC G+G
Everytime I turn around you turn up and then turn me down
D MajorD
For you've got me buffaloed into your ways of thinking

But you'd better drop anchor my ship of love is sinking.

And my little boat of love keeps you in sight for a while , but then your gone

Well, I thought I had a chance of being rescued because the word got around to me

That your new captain had strayed of course and your ship had sprung a leak

C majorC D MajorD G+G
As I cried for help I wasted my breath for you didn't even hear me call.
