[A]You say I'm the greatest, bound for glory
Well the word is out and I learne[E]d
[A]I got the latest side of the story
You're p[G]ulling out [D]before you get [A]burned
Verse 2:
[A]Well your hands are squeezing me, down to the bone
I never saw you breaking no law[E]
[A]Stands to reason I've got to leave you alone
[G] What you t[D]ake me for[A]
Chorus:
Cos [A]you're setting me up to put me [D]down
You're just m[E]aking me out to be your c[A]lown
You're just[A] setting me up to put me [D]down
You better g[E]ive it up (give it up), give it up
Quit your messing round [A]
Fills in chorus:
You're setting me up
