                    D G D
I want my share of love
                      D G D
It might as well be known
                     D G D
But I ain't thinking of
                   A D A
One girl to love alone
                              G7
That ain't the way it's gonna be
                      D
I'm on my own and I’m  free
                    D G D
And I've been satisfied
                     D G D
So I don't wanna be tied

Somebody's loving arms
Can sure be sweet I've found
But I want no-one's arms
To ever hold me down
Once I get caught inside a net
I'm gonna run I bet
I'm gonna run and hide
I don't wanna be tied

G          A    D          B7
I've seen lovers who were matched
Em            A          D7
They thought love could stay
G          A       D       B7
Once they cared and got attached
Em             A                  D G7 D
It seems that love just slipped away

Don't want no claims on me,
Don't want no chains that bind
as anyone could see
I say what's on my mind
Well there ain't nothing I conceal
I'm gonna play the field
The field of love is wide
I don't wanna be tied

                      D  G7 D
The field of love is wide,
                  D  G7 D
I don't wanna be tied
                      D  G7  D
The field of love is wide,
                  D
I don't wanna be tied

         E7              A7
I said I don't, I don't wanna be
                  D   G7 D7
I don't wanna be tied
