A You say I'm the greatest bound for glory Em D Well the word is out and I learned A I got the latest side of the story G D A You're pulling out before you get burned Well your hands are squeezing me down to the bone I never saw you breaking no law Stands to reason I've got to leave you alone What're you taking me for Chorus: A D You're setting me up to put me down E A You're making me out to be your clown A D You're just setting me up to put me down E You better give it up A Quit your messing around You think I care about your reaction You think I don't understand All you wanted was a piece of the action Now you talk about another man Chorus
