Verse:
C majorC                  DmDm
Oh Jeremiah, tell me what have you done
                               C majorC
you took all the love she gave, you took it all and away you run
                                    DmDm
you cant keep all your love bottled inside, so you give it away to women

almost a different woman every single night
              C majorC
Well you think that you can hide from the morning light

Chorus:
   FF   G+G     C majorC
you forgot about sweet Sue
      FF   G+G       C majorC
and the promises you said you'd do
       FF   G+G        C majorC
she's gonna put you back up on the shelf
       FF G+G   C majorC
she does better by herself

Verse:
C majorC                   DmDm
Oh, Jeremiah, place the ring upon her finger
                        C majorC
don't leave it at home again tonight, or in the pocket of your blue jeans
C majorC                   DmDm
you say this time tomorrow you'll be a different man, you'll change for the better
                     C majorC
I hope you keep your promises, I hope you keep them, my sweet Jeremiah

Chorus:
   FF   G+G     C majorC
you forgot about sweet Sue
      FF   G+G       C majorC
and the promises you said you'd do
       FF   G+G        C majorC
she's gonna put you back up on the shelf
       FF G+G   C majorC
she does better by herself

Outro:
      DmDm     G+G      C majorC   FF    A minorAm
but she'll make sure to keep all the dust away from you
DmDm        G+G          C majorC
you're like wine, you get sweeter with time
