Things You Used To Do

By Gregg Allman & Keith England

Copyright 1981 Elijah Blue Music

Transcribed by Paul Gongola

Well here you come again

Claiming to be my long lost friend

I can tell you’re wearing thin

You’re trying to play those same old evil tricks again

No, no nobody

Not even you, babe

No, no nobody

Is gonna do the things you used to do

A wise man tried to warn me

But I would not hear a word

Just can’t say that I feel badly

About all the bridges I have burned

No, no nobody

Not even you, babe

No, no nobody

Is gonna do the things you used to do

If you knew someone like I know you

You can hear their footsteps

And know exactly who they are

You ain’t worthy my time or money

Much less my heart

Yet here you are again

Who the hell do you think you are

You’ve got a million dollar smile

And a half-a-dollar soul

You’re a living lesson baby

And your story’s getting old

No, no nobody

Not even you, babe

No, no nobody

Is gonna do the things you used to do
