[Intro]
Dm Cm7 F7 Bbmaj7 A7
[Verse 1]
Dm
Such a pitiful sight,
Cm7 F7
what’d you do with your pride?
Bbmaj7
Got your head hung low,
A7
and tears in your eyes
Dm
It’s a tough bitter pill
Cm7 F7
that you’re swallowing still,
Bbmaj7
like a dog on a leash,
A7
moving against his will.
Dm
And it’s hard, I know,
Cm7 F7
’Cause she’s so beautiful
Bbmaj7
Never before have you felt this
A7
Boy you know that you’re helpless
[Chorus]
Dm
You don’t know what to say,
G7
Or how to walk away
Dm G7
She’s got a player playing games that you can’t play
F
Some kind of animal,
G7
You know she’s in control
Dm G
You better tuck yourself ’cause you look shook
Dm
Hey, she got you on the back foot
G
Oh, she got you on the back foot
[Verse 2]
Dm
Out of your element
Cm7 F7
And you play in defense
Bbmaj7
Always shooting to kill
A7
Oh and you never miss
Dm
But it’s different this time
Cm7 F7
Hit you on the right side
Bbmaj7
Oh and you can’t tell her no
G7
’Cause your tongue is too tight
[Chorus]
Dm
You don’t know what to say,
G7
Or how to walk away
Dm G7
She’s got a player playing games that you can’t play
F
Some kind of animal,
G7
You know she’s in control
Dm G
You better tuck yourself ’cause you look shook
Dm
Oh, she got you on the back foot
G Dm G
Oh, she got you on the back foot, yeah
[Bridge]
Dm
You don’t know what to say,
G7
Or how to walk away
Dm G7
She’s got a player playing games that you can’t play
F
Some kind of animal,
G7
You know she’s in control
Dm
You better check yourself
Uh,
[Chorus]
Dm
You don’t know what to say,
G7
Or how to walk away
Dm G7
She’s got a player playing games that you can’t play
F
Some kind of animal,
G7
You know she’s in control
Dm G
You better check yourself ’cause you look shook
Dm
Ah, she got you on the back foot

Hey, she got you on the back foot
[Outro]
