[Verse]
Dm                     F 
 I know she said it's alright 
Bb                               F 
   But you can make it up next time 
Dm                       F 
I know she knows it's not right 
Bb                          F 
   There ain't no use in lying 
Dm                      F 
Maybe she thinks I know something 
       Bb                           F 
Maybe maybe, she thinks it's fine 
Dm                   F 
Maybe she knows something I don't 
       Bb            C 
I'm so, I'm so tired, I'm so tired of trying 
[Chorus]
F                       C 
  It seems to me that maybe 
Dm                        A 
  It pretty much always means no 
   Bb                  C                   F            C 
So don't tell me you might just let it go 
F                        C 
  And often times we're lazy 
Dm                      A 
   It seems to stand in my way 
    Bb                 C 
Cause no one, no, not no one 
                     F             C 
Likes to be let down
[Verse]
Dm (hold)               F (hold) 
I know she loves the sunrise 
Bb (hold)                         F (hold) 
   No longer sees it with her sleeping eyes 
    Dm (hold)                         F (hold) 
And I know that when she said she's gonna try 
Bb (hold)                           F (hold) 
Well it might not work because of other ties and 
Dm                            F 
I know she usually has some other ties 
    Bb                               F 
And I wouldn't want to break 'em, nah, I wouldn't want to break 'em 
Dm                       F 
   Maybe she'll help me to untie this but 
Bb              C 
Until then well, I'm gonna have to lie too
[Chorus]
F                       C 
  It seems to me that maybe 
Dm                        A 
  It pretty much always means no 
   Bb                  C                   F            C 
So don't tell me you might just let it go 
F                        C 
  And often times we're lazy 
Dm                      A 
   It seems to stand in my way 
    Bb                 C 
Cause no one, no, not no one 
                     F             C 
Likes to be let down  
F                       C 
  It seems to me that maybe 
Dm                        A 
  It pretty much always means no 
   Bb                  C                   F            C 
So don't tell me you might just let it go

[Chorus]
F                                                 Bb 
The harder that you try baby, the further you'll fall 
           F                     C 
Even with all the money in the whole wide world 
F 
Please, please, please don't pass me 
Bb 
Please, please, please don't pass me 
F               C                    F 
Please, please, please don't pass me by
[Chorus]
               F                                         Bb 
Everything you know about me now, baby you gonna have to change 
              F                       C 
You goin' to call it, by a brand new name 
F 
Please, please, please don't drag me 
Bb 
Please, please, please don't drag me 
F               C                     F 
Please, please, please don't drag me down
[Chorus]
               F                                         Bb 
Just like your tree, down by the water, baby I shall not move 
           F                        C 
Even after all the silly things you do 
F 
Please, please, please don't drag me 
Bb 
Please, please, please don't drag me 
F               C                    F               F 
Please, please, please don't drag me down
