It's something, I have to come way

back to St. Louis where my home is

and everybody doesn't

want to speak to me.

Well, anyway,

it's awfully nice being home,

seeing so many of you out this evening.

And in spite of your coldness,

I'm to try to put on a

good show for you.

D
G
D
C

because I want to talk to you.

I want to talk about love and hurt.

Maybe there's some of you

in the house

this evening

that's never been in love.

Maybe there's some in the house this evening


that's never been hurt, but just the same,

I want you to listen to me,
D

because I've loved, and I've been hurt,

and sometimes I often
C
G

wonder am I by myself?
C

I wonder how many of you have ever been
D

in love?

How many of you have
C

ever been hurt?
C
D

Have you ever been in love

with a man that didn't love

you?
D

Or sometimes, when you might have been at a dance like you are tonight,

thinking about the man you love,
C

an d you look

over the corner somewhere
G

and see him with another girl.

Ladies and gentlemen,

the feeling that you get then is

what I call hurt.

But you know, it ain't
D

nothing you can do about it.
C

Some of you might say, oh yeah, Tina,

there is something that I can do about it.
C

But I'm going to tell you something,

because I know.

If a man don't want you,
D

you can't make him have you.

You might as well try to forget about it.

I'm going to ask you something right now.

If you feel like talking to me,

I want you to sing along with me and say,

If there's anybody in this house

that's ever been hurt,
G

I wanna hear you sing, ah
C
Am
G
D

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
G
C

Sing the song, oh yeah
G
D
G

Baby, please, don't go
Em
C
Am
D
G
C

No, I know, baby, I love you so I must
G

stop the music one more time,

because I ain't been talking to you yet.

First, I want to say that I know that

in the house this evening,

we probably have some more respectable young ladies,

but you know, even the respectable ones

have done some wrong once in their lives.

If you haven't done wrong yet,

you've got to do something wrong

because that's how life is.

I say that for another reason because folks,

I still want to know how am I by myself.

I want to know how many of you have ever

been in love with a married man.

You know, I want to know how many of you have

ever been in love with your best girlfriend's old man.

You know,

when you're in love with a man

that don't belong to you,

you can't always

have him when you want to.

And yes, you can't be

with him

when you really, really need him.

Most of the times,

you have to slip to see him.

But all of us know, young and old,


that when you start to slip in doing anything,


it gets out of hand sometimes.

As a matter of fact,

it makes you start to wondering.

Sometimes you say,

I wonder if he hugs and kisses his old lady at home like he hugs and kisses me.

All of us are grown -ups

and we can face the truth.

But I got some young ladies in the

house this evening

that ain't talking to me.

Maybe it's because you don't want to put your

business in the streets.

Or maybe the man that

you're with this evening

don't belong to you.

Some of you may think hard of me

for what I'm saying,

because I'm saying it before so

many people,

but all of you know

that I'm telling the truth.

But girls,

when I run up on one of those men

that I can't have when I want him,

whenever I think I want him,

when I need him,

you want to know what I tell him?


What did you say?

Hey!

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
