Verse 1:

                 Ebm
        When you knew that I had given
                Cb7
        All the kindness that I had
                 Ebm           Gb       Db     Ebm
        Did you think that it might be time to stop
                 Ebm
        When you knew that I was through
                 Cb7
        That I'd done all I could do
                Ebm             Gb       Db   Ebm
        Did you really have to milk the final drop

Chorus [last half notated in sharp keys to avoid double-flats, e.g. Cb7/Bbb]:

                Gb            Gb7/Bb
        Not content with my mistake
               Cb                Db
        You behaved just like a snake
             Gb          Gb7/Bb           Cb     Db
        And left me for a wasp without a sting
              B        D#m/A#                      B7/A
        Tell all [1: my friends 2: the folks] back home
                          E    G#m/D#              C#m
        That [1: I 2: he] did it on [1: my 2: his] own
                 F#                 F#7/E               B    F7  Bb7
        And that to their well-worn cares they should cling

Instrumental break:

        guitar solo:

        Ebm       F7 Bb7  Ebm
         / / / /  / / / /  / / / /  / / / /  / / / /  / / / /

Verse 2:

        When you knew that I had given
        All the kindness that I had
        Did you feel you had to break that lonely vow

        When you knew that I was through
        That I'd done all I could do
        Did you really have to sow that final plow
