What More Can I Do Tab

by Meters


WHAT MORE CAN I DO by The Meters from the album "Good Old Funky Music"

A soulful lament.  I couldn't find the lyrics anywhere online, 
Intro tab ain't exact and variations of it are heard throughout.
Enjoy!

What can I do to make you understand me
                                             
Oh girl, I tried the things 
                                 
I thought would get me through to you
                               
Baby, you just go ahead and misunderstand me
                 
Tell me what can I do, yeah

                                  
I tried to show you love in every way I could
                                  
You see, I don't do the things I really should
                                    
You think my love is like 
                       
the one that comes and goes
                  
Tell me what can I do

(BRIDGE)
                                
I've thought of throwing you out of my mind
                                  
Girl, I've pretended that things were just fine
                   
As I sit down alone in my room
                                      
I've thought of lovin' you, lovin' you, lovin' you, lovin' you

                
Tell me what can I do

(SPOKEN)
    
Girl, I don't care what no one says
    
I'm gonna keep on lovin' you anyway
                                       
I think it's just about time that I blow your mind

(BRIDGE)

    
Baby, tell me what, tell me what can I do, yeah
    
Oh, just to prove I love you
    
And you keep on makin', keep on makin' me blue
    
Oh, well you know I love you...(fade)
