Chorus:
    G                  D          G Am  C Bm G
   Baby don't get too tight with me
    G                   D        Em
   Yes, you're far too tight for me

Bm
I got your messages
    Am
And how can I resist
Bm
But if you come around
       Am                      G
Don't slap the cuffs upon my wrist

Chorus:
    G               D         G C G
   Baby you're too tight for me
   (I warn you) Yeah
    G        D       Em
   Far too tight for me
   Yeah

Untie those sheep shanks, yes
And all those fancy knots
I'm not Houdini, honey
C'mon now and loosen up

    G
   Tight
  C     G
   Too tight
  C     G
   Too tight
  C     G
   Too tight

Yeah, don't try to reel me in
With all those charm school looks
I've seen it all a thousand times
I sung that song, I wrote that fucking book

Do yourself a favour now
Don't drive me 'round the block
Let's split another bottle, now
Let's take a hit, loosen up

Chorus:
    G             D        G
   Don't get too tight on me
                     G       D              Em
   'Cause I'm, I'm bound so tight I can't breathe

We'll watch the sun go down
Upon the swollen sea
(Aahhhhhh)
If you try to chain me up
I'll vanish like a broken dream

G C G
     Don't get so tight
     Don't get so tight
     Too tight
