Marshall Crenshaw - Better Back Off Chords

[Intro]
A        D    A     E        A    E  x2
 
[Verse 1]
E        A            D   A        E    A    E
Well you can’t always get what you want
        F#m          D   E        G  D
No, you can’t always get what you need
D            G    D        C#m         F#m
Sometime you lose what you thought you had
             G        Bm      F#m
Now that’s a real bad deal indeed
 
[Verse 2]
                A        D    A E    A    E
But when you’re angry at life itself
F#m      D    E   G  D
Having a bad, bad day
D               G    D  C#m    F#m
Don’t judge yourself so brutally
        G                 Bm        F#m    A
I can’t stand it when you talk that way
 
[Chorus]
   E     F#m
Oh baby, baby
       C#m              D
Better back off of that stuff
             E
You’d better take it slow
  D
I know you know
            F#m           D         E
That you’re talking ‘bout someone I love
 
[Verse 3]
        A          D     A E     A    E
Did you say what I think I heard
        F#m         D     E   G   D
Did you mean what I think you said
D             G D C#m       F#m
Why don’t you redirect your rage
     G        D      Bm
Onto somebody else instead
 
[Verse 4]
       A           D     A    E    A    E
Now we all have to cross that line
        F#m        D  A G   D
Between sorrow and happiness
D         G    D   C#m     F#m
Come over here and take my hand
          G              Bm     F#m    A
Won’t you please give us both a rest?
 
[Chorus]
   E     F#m
Oh baby, baby
       C#m              D
Better back off of that stuff
             E
You’d better take it slow
  D
I know you know
            Bm            D         E
That you’re talking ‘bout someone I love
A  E     F#m
Oh baby, baby
C#m         D
I’ve heard enough
D                 E
‘Cause I know you will come through
        D
And you know it too
       F#m           D         E
You’re talking ‘bout someone I love
             F#m           D         E
Yeah, you’re talking ‘bout someone I love
