[E] [Bm] [D6/F#] [C/G] ([D/A])
| / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / |

[E] Set me free, why [Bm]don't you, baby? [D6/F#] Get out my life, why d[C/G]on't you, baby?
[E] 'Cause you don't really l[Bm]ove me, you just [D6/F#]keep me hanging[C/G] on,
[E] You don't really n[Bm]eed me, but you [D6/F#]keep me hanging [C/G]on!

[G7sus4/F] Why do you keep a-coming around, pl[C]aying a - with my h[G]eart?
[G7sus4/F] Why don't you get out of my life, [C] and let me make a new st[G]art?[Bm/F#]
[D] Let me get over you, the [B7/F#]way you've gotten over me!

Hey, [E] set me free, why d[Bm]on't you, baby? [D6/F#] Let me be, why [C/G]don't you, baby?
[Em/B] Oo - oo, [D/A]oo, [E]oo! 'Cause you don't really l[Bm]ove me, you just [D6/F#]keep me hanging [C/G]on,
[Em/B] Oo - oo, [D/A]oo, [E]oo! Now you don't really w[Bm]ant me, you just [D6/F#]keep me hanging[C/G] on!

[G7sus4/F] You say, although we broke up, you s[C]till want to be just fr[G]iends,
[G7sus4/F] But how can we still be friends, when s[C]eeing you only breaks my he[E]art again?
[Esus5] And there ain't nothing I can do about it!

A - woh, oh - oo, [E]oh! (Set me free, why d[Bm]on't you, baby?)
A - woh, oh - oo, [D6/F#]oh! (Get out my life, why d[C/G]on't you, baby?) [Em/B] Oo - oo, [D/A]oo, [E]oo!
Set me free, why d[Bm]on't you, baby? [D6/F#] Get out my life, why [C/G]don't you, baby?

[G7sus4/F] You claim you still care for me, but your he[C]art and soul needs to be f[G]ree,
[G7sus4/F] And now that you've got your freedom, you w[C]ant to still hold on to [G]me, [Bm/F#]
[D] You dont want me for yourself, so [B7/F#]let me find somebody else, hey - hey!

[E] Why don't you be a [Bm]man about it, [D6/F#] and set me [C/G]free?
Now... [E] you don't care a t[Bm]hing about me, [D6/F#] you're just using [C/G]me,
Go [E]on, get out, get o[Bm]ut of my life, [D6/F#] and let me sleep at n[C/G]ight, please,
[E] 'Cause you don't really l[Bm]ove me, you just [D6/F#]keep me hanging [C/G]on,
[Em/B] Oo - oo,[D/A] oo, [E]oo! You don't really n[Bm]eed me, you just [D6/F#]keep me hanging...
