Stick With Me Baby — Mel Tillis
Chords and lyrics for Stick With Me Baby by Mel Tillis (key of G).
Intro
[G-D-G-D]
The [G]alarm clock woke my sleepin' but I lay there for a minute
With a [C]million cobwebs clingin' to my [G]brain
I stopped the bell from ringin' in the times it takes a heartbeat
Then I [A]settled back and closed my eyes [D]again
I [G]reached out for my baby for some early morning loving
Then the [C]terrible truth came staggering through my [G]head
There was [C]nothing but the fragrance of her [G]perfume on the [C]pillow
Baby [G]wasn't there [D]beside me in the [G]bed
[G]It's the mornin' after [C]baby let me [G]down
It's the daybreak and a heartbreak that I [D]found
Only [G]silence to torment me, no [C]soft hands to touch me gently
It's the [G]mornin' after [D]baby let me [G]down[D-G-D]
There was [G]nothing to hold on to except the sheets that fell around me
And I [C]started into tremblin' like a [G]leaf
How could that woman leave me she was more than just a lover
She was every [A]bit a lady warm and [D]sweet
I can [G]taste the salty teardrops and it's gettin' hard to swallow
I hope a [C]glass of bourbon can take the pain [G]away
I got no [C]appetite for eatin' just a [G]sick and empty [C]feelin'
What a [G]good for nothing [D]way to start the [G]day
[G]It's the mornin' after [C]baby let me [G]down
It's the daybreak and a heartbreak that I [D]found
Only [G]silence to torment me, no [C]soft hands to touch me gently
It's the [G]mornin' after [D]baby let me [G]down
[G]It's the mornin' after [C]baby let me [G]down
It's the daybreak and a heartbreak that I [D]found
