  			  Eb                       Ab 
I pick you up with flowers when you get off from work  
          Eb                            Bb 
It's like you don't even care it's like I'm some kind of jerk 
           Eb                         Ab 
I take you out on a date and then you won't even kiss me  
           Eb                        Bb 
Boy when I ain't around I'll bet you don't even miss me  
 
              Ab             Eb     Bb              
 I don't know why I love you like I do 
           Ab                Eb     Bb 
 I try and try, you treat me like a fool  
             Ab                       Eb      Bb 
 It makes me want to cry, it makes me feel so blue  
            Ab              Eb 
 But I just do, baby I just do  
 
 
I call you up just to pass the time  
Soon as you hear my voice you disconnect the line  
And when I call you back your mother says you ain't home  
Cindy I know that you're on the other end of this phone  
 
            Ab                  Eb         Bb 
 Oh in this world there ain't another like you  
           Ab                   Eb         Bb 
 My little candy girl, so hard-hearted and cruel  
                Ab             Eb    Bb 
 I think that's what keeps me coming back 
       Eb           Ab          Bb           Eb 
 I'm a fool for you Cindy and I like it like that  
 
 BREAK: Bb Bb Eb Eb 
        Bb Bb Eb Eb 
 
I came to get you last night, Cindy at quarter to six  
Your Daddy came to the door, he said Cindy got sick  
She got sent home from work with a note from the nurse  
And I worry your presence would make her condition worse 
  
 But it ain't your health, 'cuz you sure look so fine  
 Little girl it's something else that's on my mind  
 Whatever you got, well you can give it me  
 'Cuz if it's good enough for you it's good enough for me  
 
 I don't know why I love you like I do  
 You make me cry and feel like a fool  
 I guess I like it when you hurt me this way  
 You dish it out and I just put it away 
 
 OUTRO: Bb Bb Eb Eb
