Capo 2
C E Am
I don't know much, when I knew less, And I was heartbroke for the first time,
C E
I was drowning in my tears, I went looking for a lifeline,
C Am
Trying to find some comfort, A simple tender touch,
G F E
Searching for some little cure That would not cost too much,
F Am
And I could hear that produce wagon on the street,
F G
I could hear that farmer singing, As I cried myself to sleep
C E
I got ba-na-na, watermelon, peaches by the pound,
C E
Sweet corn, mirleton, mo' better than in town,
C Am
I got okra, enough to choke ya, Beans of every kind,
G F E
If hungry is what's eatin' you I'll sell you peace of mind,
F Am
But this ain't what you came to hear me say,
F G
And I hate to disappoint you, But I got no love today,
C E C E Am
I got no love today, I got no love today, No love today
C E Am
I could not love to save myself From lonesome desperation.
C E
Everything I thought was love Was worthless imitation.
C Am
My concept of commitment Was to take all you could give,
G F E
I thought the cheapest thrills I loved Were teachin' me to live,
F Am
But nothin' seemed to last or see me through
F G
Nothin' but that little song That I still sing for you.
C E
I got ba-na-na, watermelon, peaches by the pound,
C E
Sweet corn, mirleton, mo' better than in town,
C Am
I got okra, enough to choke ya, Beans of every kind,
G F E
If hungry is what's eatin' you I'll sell you peace of mind,
F Am
But this ain't what you came to hear me say,
F G
And I hate to disappoint you, But I got no love today,
C E C E Am
I got no love today, I got no love today, No love today
C E Am
No love today, none tomorrow, Not now, not forever.
C E
You can't see what comes for free, I think you much too clever,
C Am
For your own good I will tell you What's right before your eyes,
G F E
Intelligence is no defense Against what this implies,
F Am
In the end no one will sell you what you need,
F G
You can't buy it off the shelf, You got to grow it from the seed,
C E Am
I got ba-na-na, watermelon, peaches by the pound,
C E
Sweet corn, mirleton, mo' better than in town,
C Am
I got okra, enough to choke ya, Beans of every kind,
G F E
If hungry is what's eatin' you I'll sell you peace of mind,
F Am
But this ain't what you came to hear me say,
F G
And I hate to disappoint you, But I got no love today,
C E C E Am
I got no love today, I got no love today, No love today
