My Baby Don't Tolerate

Lyle Lovett

 G
 A friend of mine, he said to me, a skinny girl is a misery
 G
shook my head cause I knew he couldn't be right
 BbC
That's when I thought back to just last night
 G
When I got home, it was maybe a little late
 G
There was ne'r a crumb on ne'r a plate
 G
There was no martini, no glass of grape
 BbC
It was then I sought to contemplate

*On the word "tolerate" in the chorus for the first 2 lines, it's hard to tell
if there is an actual chord change or is he vocally sliding the note up.*

Chorus:
 GBbC
Some things my baby don't tolerate, no
 GBbC
 My baby don't tolerate, no
 GBbCG
 My baby don't tolerate from me

I said hello honey, how have you been
She said what could you have possibly have been doing until half past then
And not being completely insensitive I could tell my ship had run aground
Cause when I puckered up she puckered down

Chorus

Solo

Now a small more ordinary man might not appreciate the guidance of a good woman that truly loves him
He might drift in despair during the ignorant, dumb misdoings of his dirty daily existence
But that's not me, no yessirreee
I'm proof that true love will set you free

Chorus
