E C#m A  3x

E                  C#m      A
I'll never be your beast of burden;
E                    C#m    A
my back is broad but it's a hurting
E                 C#m         A       E
All I want is for you to make love to me
E                  C#m      A
I'll never be your beast of burden;
E                        C#m      A
I've walked for miles my feet are hurting
E                 C#m         A       E
All I want is for you to make love to me

A
Am I hard enough?
     E
Am I rough enough?

Am I rich enough?
            E        B
I'm not too blind to see

E                  C#m      A
I'll never be your beast of burden,
E                    C#m      A

        E
You can put me out,
C#m    A
on the street
E
Put me out,
        C#m         A
with no shoes on my feet
E
But, put me out, put me out,
C#m           A   E
put me out of misery

      E
Yeah, all your sickness,
      C#m     A
I can suck it up
E
Throw it all at me,
      C#m      A
I can shrug it off
E
There's one thing baby,
C#m          A    E
that I don't understand
E           C#m
You keep on telling me,
  A                  E
I ain't your kind of man

        A
Ain't I rough enough, ooh baby
        E
Ain't I tough enough?
        A
Ain't I rich enough, in love enough
E         B
Ooh! Ooh! Please

E                  C#m      A
I'll never be your beast of burden
E                  C#m      A
I'll never be your beast of burden
E             C#m           A                   E
Never, never, never, never, never, never, never be

E                  C#m      A
I'll never be your beast of burden;
E                        C#m      A
I've walked for miles my feet are hurting . . .
