I Didn't Mean It Status Quo
When you say those words[C], those three little words
You're [G]in at the [C]deep end
[C]Give up the night times, give up the high times
[G]Give up the [C]weekend
Prechorus:
[A#]Give up the [Am]chance to [G]be your own [C]man
[F]Let the [C]feeling take [G]ove[C]r
The [A#]only way [Am]out is to [G]lie if you c[C]an
But [F]you don't [C]have the [G]knack
And [F]you'll come [Dm]crawling [G]back, [G7]saying
Chorus:
I didn't mean [C]it, I didn't mean it
I didn't mean to say what I said when I said I didn't [G]mean it
I didn't mean [G7]it, I didn't mean it
I didn't mean to say what I said it was only a [C]game
I didn't mean [C]it, I didn't mean it
I didn't mean to tell you in so many words, I didn't m[G]ean it
I felt [F]tied down, my [G]pride down
That [F]I put that lie [G]down
The [F]prize now for [G]you is [C]me
II:
Well [G]I was like you and all I could do was
Give [C]up and sur[G]render
The [G]people can trace what they did in my face
But [C]they're just pre[G]tenders
Pre-chorus 2:
They [A#]told me [Am]mercenary [G]action to[C]day
Is a [F]line as [C]simple and [G]pu[C]re
But [A#]what if you [Am]found you [G]made a mi[C]stake
The [F]medicine's [C]worse than the [G]cure[C]
And [F]you'll be [C]back for [G]sure, [G7]saying
Chorus:
I didn't mean [C]it, I didn't mean it
I didn't mean to say what I said when I said I didn't [G]mean it
I didn't mean [G7]it, I didn't mean it
I didn't mean to say what I said it was only a [C]game
I didn't mean [C]it, I didn't mean it
I didn't mean to tell you in so many words, I didn't m[G]ean it
I felt [F]tied down, my [G]pride down
That [F]I put that lie [G]down
The [F]prize now for [G]you is [C]me
Pre-chorus:
[A#]Give up the [Am]chance to [G]be your own [C]man
[F]Let the [C]feeling take [G]ove[C]r
The [A#]only way [Am]out is to [G]lie if you c[C]an
But [F]you don't [C]have the [G]knack
And [F]you'll come [Dm]crawling [G]back, [G7]saying
Chorus:
I didn't mean [C]it, I didn't mean it
I didn't mean to say what I said when I said I didn't [G]mean it
I didn't mean [G7]it, I didn't mean it
I didn't mean to say what I said it was only a [C]game
I didn't mean [C]it, I didn't mean it
I didn't mean to tell you in so many words, I didn't m[G]ean it
I felt [F]tied down, my [G]pride down
That [F]I put that lie [G]down
The [F]prize now for [G]you is [C]me
