04 What Did You Do? (3.46)
A bit early 60s poppy this one (did Steve really suggest Freddie and the Dreamers?)... Another tale of blighted love but with some nice lead guitar and an (almost) angelic choir at the end...
C G F G Am
What did you do? You took before I offered
F G Am
What did you do? You stole what I would have given you for free
G F G Am
What did you do? You just could not be bothered
F G C
To wait. Why did you do that thing to me
C F G
How come your mother never taught you
Am F
It’s really so much better to give than to receive
C F G
Wise to journey through this life with honour
Am F G
Better the truth than to deceive
Why all the slipping and the sliding
Why all the sleight of hand, the lies and the deceit
Time now for telling and confiding
Am F
Nothing to lose now that your victory’s complete
F
I’m standing here at your command
F C G
What’s so confusing now that you don’t understand
