Lyrics
Listen Up Sweetheart
Word & music by Blake Christiana
C
Listen up sweetheart
C
When I tell you
G
I am leaving
F
I?m heading out on the road
So the story goes
C
This time
And I?m so sorry
For my actions
I can?t help it
I?m bashing my head against the wall
To understand it all
Right now
She said,
G
Treat me like a lady you devil of a man
C
And understand
Am
Oh understand
F G C
I have given you all I can
F G C
I have given you all I can
Listen up sweetheart
Please stop your crying
I got to go now
We?ve tried and we?ve tried
To work it out
But there was too much doubt
This time
She said,
G
Treat me like a lady you devil of a man
C
And understand
Am
Oh understand
F G C
I have given you all I can
F G C
I have given you all I can
