I've got something that my baby wants
C#BmC#F#mD
And I've got something that my baby wants
C#F#m
And she's got something that I want too
DC#F#m
Baby and I are through
C#
I've been down to the bottom
BmC#F#m
With a bad, bad man
C#
Down to the bottom, babe
BmC#D
With a bad, bad man
[Chorus]
F#m
Lay me down with your gentle hand

C#BmC#
Well, he said this darkness, it was untrue
F#mC#
And first he said this darkness
BmC#
Darlin', it was untrue
DC#F#mD
And that there was no light to be found in you
[Chorus]
C#F#m
But I know, darlin', that that's not true
[Verse]
C#
And I had a dream so black
BmC#F#m
That I could not tell
C#
Oh, honey, I had a dream so dark
BmC#D
That I could not tell
[Chorus]
C#DF#m
But I know that's just as well

[Verse]
C#
And I don't know, babe
BmC#F#m
Just where you've been
C#
I don't know, darlin'
BmC#
Just where you've been
DC#
But I've hung myself heavy here
DC#F#mF#m
Babe, I don't know where the hell I am
[Verse]
C#
I thought that man, babe
BmC#F#m
He might have something that I need
I thought that man, darlin'
BmC#
He might have something that I need
[Chorus]
DC#
But he had no anger
F#
For you or for me
DC#
And, babe, I swear
F#m
That man never even knew I was here

C#
Some of these friends of mine
BmC#F#m
How I miss them so
C#
Good Lord, these sweet friends of mine
BmC#
How I miss them so
[Chorus]
DC#
But some of these, others beg
DC#
Well they're driving me around
On some cold, dark, and strange
F#m
And deathly roads
[Verse]
C#
Take me down to your river
BmC#F#m
I want to see how it runs
C#
Down to your river, darlin'
BmC#F#m
I want to know just how it runs
DC#
But if that man waits on the path
DC#F#mD
Then I know for good that I'm done
C#
And I got a feeling
DC#F#m
That man, he's just begun
