Intro:
Oh you're breaking my spirit and you're hurting my ears
Little darling, when I hold you close
You have laid in my bed since the day we were wed
But when you're sleeping, I like you the most
Cause your voice is a needle on a record that's broke
The only one, babe, that you ever play
And these days it skips more, and it was not that good before
Oh, Lord, help me love you, babe
Oh, Lord, help me love you, babe
Well, long ago, I was foolish, long ago, I was young
You were a waitress on Route Thirteen
I was hungry for eggs, back then you had nice legs
And the rest is just histo-ry
Now your voice is a needle on a record that's broke
The only one, babe, that you ever play
And these days it skips more, and it was not that good before
Oh, Lord, help me love you, babe
Oh, Lord, help me love you, babe
/
Through thick and thin, that's the way that we swore
/
But you ain’t been thin since the children were born
Oh, Lord, how I try, yeah, you know that I do
But it ain't easy loving you
Cause your voice is a needle on a record that's broke
The only one, babe, that you ever play
And these days it skips more, and it was not that good before
Oh, Lord, help me love you, babe
Oh, Lord, help me love you, babe
Oh, Lord, help me love you, babe
That's it. This is one of her more easy songs.
Listen to the song for strumming and the
hammer-on on Em7 in the chorus...
