    Baby, don't you shed a tear for me 
   C                               D 
    I wouldn't want to waste your time 
G                                 Bm            Bbm7 Am 
    You talked a lot of trash and ya lied to me 
Am7                            C   D 
    But babe, you never even tried  
     
Am     Am/G  Dsus2/F# 
    Oh, oh, oh 
             Am                Am/G 
    You can hold my heart for ransom 
                D 
    But you'll never own my soul  
 
G            F             C     
    Baby, I might lose my mind 
G            F             C   D 
    Maybe I might lose my head 
    Em               D/F# 
    One thing I'll never do 
         C                        G       D/F#

    Baby, I'm burning our bed  
     
G                                        Bm          Bbm7 Am 
    There used to be a time when you were everything 
                C             D 
    My flame thru the night 
G                             Bm          Bbm7 Am 
    You got me hot then you blew me out 
                                  C     D 
    Like this match I'm about to light  
     
    Oh, oh, oh 
    You can tear my heart to pieces 
    Left me standing in the cold  
     
    Baby, I might lose my mind 
    Maybe I might lose my head 
    One thing I gotta do 
    Is torch those sheets and pillows too 
     Am        F           D   
    Baby, I'm burning out bed  
     
                      C 
    Well, I used to think your were so kind 
     Am          Am/G   Em    Bm    Am    C  D  Em    Bm    C    D 
    How could I be so blind  
     
Am     Am/G  Dsus2/F# 
    Oh, oh, oh 
          Am    Am/G 
    I'm free 
              D 
    But I'm alone 
 
G             F             C     
    Maybe, I might lose my mind (I might lose my mind)

    Maybe I might lose my head (might lose my head)

    One I swear to you  
            C                              G          D/F# 
    You`re gonna feel the heat 'fore this night is through 
     Am           F 
    Baby, You`re burning me 
     Em          C 
    Sometimes a man can bleed 
     Am       F           G 
    Baby I'm burning our bed 
 
G             F             C  
    Mayby, I might lose my mind (I don`t care) 
G            F             C  
    Maybe I might lose my head (Aw, wouldn`t be the first time) 
Em                      D/F# 
    But one thing I'll never do 
            C                     G       D/F# 
    Is swallow my pride crawlin' back to you 
     Am        F           G 
    Baby, I'm burning our bed
