My absolute favorite Turtles single - in fact, one of my favorite singles,
period - even if it didn't chart anywhere. - AWR

Verse 1:
[12-string repeats intro riff on // strings]
You can try to please me
But it won't be easy
Stone walls surround me
I'm surprised that you even found me
Chorus:
And you don't stand an outside chance
(you don't stand an outside chance)
You don't stand an outside chance
[intro riff 2X]
But you can try
Verse 2:
Whatever you do girl
You know you can't get through girl
Can't bring me down
Hang me up or even hang around
[repeat chorus]
Electric piano solo:

Bridge:
I know you think you'll get me
I'm only flesh and bone
But you may as well forget me
'Cause my heart is stone
[intro riff 2X]
You better leave me alone
[repeat verse 1]
[repeat chorus]
Coda:
[intro riff]
Stand an outside chance [rant to fade]
