Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
One, two, three, four
[G][F][C]
[G][F][C][C]

[Verse 1]
I [G]don't want to [F]talk about it to [C]you
I'm not [G]an open book
that [F]you can rifle [C]through
The [G]cold hard truth
that you'll [Am]see right [F]to[Dm]
I'm just a [C]basket [G]case without [F]you

[Verse 2]
He's not a [G]magic man
or a [F]perfect [C]fit
But had [G]a steady hand
and I got [F]used to [C]it
And a [G]glass cage heart
and in[Am]vited me [F]in[Dm]
And now I'm just a [C]basket [G]case
without [F]him

[Chorus 1]
[C]You're begging for the[F] truth
[Fm]So I'm saying it to you[C]
I've been saving your [F]place
And what [Fm]good does it do?
Now I'm just a [C]basket [G]case[F]
Now I'm just a [C]basket [G]case[F]

[Verse 3]
I [G]don't say much
and [F]it'll stay that [C]way
You got [G]a steel train touch
and I'm just a [F]track you [C]lay
So [G]I'll stay right here
[Am]underneath [F]you[Dm]
I'm just a [C]basket [G]case and
that's what we [F]do

[Chorus 2]
[C]You're begging for the[F] truth
[Fm]So I'm saying it to you[C]
I've been saving your [F]place
And what [Fm]good does it do?
Now I'm just a [C]basket [G]case[F]

[Bridge 1]
Won't somebo[C]dy come on in
and tug at my seams?
Oh, send your [G]armies in
of robbers and thieves
To steal the [Am]state I'm [F]in, I [C]don't
want it any[F]more[G][Am][G]

[Chorus 3]
[C]You're begging for the[F] truth
[Fm]So I'm saying it to you[C]
I've been saving your [F]place
And what [Fm]good does it do?
Now I'm just a [C]basket [G]case[F]
Now I'm just a [C]basket [G]case[F]
Now I'm just a [C]basket [G]case[F]
Now I'm just a [C]basket [G]case[F]
