Verse 1:
I don't want to talk
about it to you
I'm not an open book
that you can rifle through
The cold hard truth
that you'll see right to
I'm just basket
case without you
Verse 2:
He's not a magic man
or a perfect fit
But had a steady hand
and I got used to it
And a glass cage
heart and invited me in
And now I'm just a
basket case without him
Chorus 1:
You're begging for the truth
So I'm saying it to you
I've been saving your place
Gm(hold)
And what good does it do?
Now I'm just a basket case
Now I'm just a basket case
Verse 3:
I don't say much and
it'll stay that way
You got a steel train touch
and I'm just a track you lay
So I'll stay right here underneath you
I'm just a basket case and that what we do
Chorus 2:
You're begging for the truth
So I'm saying it to you
I've been saving your place
Gm(hold)
And what good does it do?
Now I'm just a basket case
Bridge:
Won't somebody come on
in and tug at my seams?
Oh send your armies in
of robbers and thieves
To steal the state I'm
in I don't want it anymore
Chorus 3:
You're begging for the truth
So I'm saying it to you
I've been saving your place
Gm(hold)
And what good does it do?
Now I'm just a basket case
Now I'm just a basket case
Now I'm just a basket case
D A G(hold)
Now I'm just a basket case
