   G             Am      
Go 'way  from my window  
Bm                       G      
Leave at your own chosen speed  
    Bm              Am          
I'm not the one you want, babe  
    Bm      D        G     
I'm not the  one you need  
    Bm                 Am           
You say you're lookin' for someone  
            Bm              Am      
Who's never weak but always strong  
   Bm                 Am        
To protect you an' de-fend you  
        Bm               Am     
Whether you are right or wrong  
C                              D     
Someone to open each and every door  
   
             G         
But it ain't me, babe  
C       D            G         
No, no, no, it ain't me, babe  
         C         D       G          
It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe  
   
G Am Bm D G 
   G                Am           
Go lightly from the ledge, babe  
   Bm      D      G       
Go lightly on the ground  
                    Am          
I'm not the one you want, babe  
     Bm   D       G     
I'll only let you down  
    Bm                 Am           
You say you're lookin' for someone  
         Bm               Am    
Who will promise never to part  
     Bm               Am            
Some-one to close his eyes for you  
     Bm               Am     
Some-one to close his heart  
C                                D     
Someone who will die for you an' more  
   
             G         
But it ain't me, babe  
C       D            G         
No, no, no, it ain't me, babe  
         C         D       G          
It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe  
   
   G                  Am           
Go melt back into the night, babe  
Bm                    G      
Everything is made of stone  
        Bm              Am      
There's nothing in here moving  
    Bm         D   G      
An' anyway I'm not alone  
    Bm                  Am           
You  say you're lookin' for someone  
                Bm               Am    
Who'll pick you up each time you fall  
   Bm             Am          
To gather flowers constantly  
    Bm                     Am    
An'  to come each time you call  
C                                 D     
A lover for your life an' nothing more  
   
             G         C       D            G         
But it ain't me, babe, no, no, no, it ain't me, babe  
         C         D       G          
It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe
