Capo: 6
"Chameleon" by Dave Barnes From "What We Want, What We Get" (2010) Tabbed by Kevin Dorth and Wessley Mitchell Tuning: Standard Capo: 6 (When Dave Barnes plays Chameleon, he tunes his guitar up six steps. Since this is rough on a regular guitar, we are using a capo on fret six. Just play the chords as written, and you should okay.)

E7Chameleon, you're breakin' his heart. It's in pieces on the ground, all apart. A7There's nothing that that boy won't D7do, when it comes to you. E7 E7Chameleon, you know that it's wrong,
But it's fun to have someone you can pull along.
A7The way you treat that boy ain't faD7ir, but he don't care. E7 What does it A7mean if you know you don't mean it? E7 What does it A7say if you got nothing to say? B7
Chorus:
He's just your E7silly little thing, hangin' on a string, Waitin' by the phone, prayin' it'll ring. A7 You know it ain't right. E7
'Cause you ain't never gonna do what he wants to,
Kneelin' by the bed, prayin' it's true. A7 You know it ain't right. E7
You know it ain't right. C#7 C7 B7* A#7 Verse 2:
E7Chameleon, what's he gonna do? You gloss them lips, shake them hips.
Honey, what's wrong with you?
He'll A7follow you wherever you D7go, and I know you know. E7 What does it A7mean if you know you don't mean it? E7 What does it A7say if you got nothing to say? B7
Chorus:
He's just your E7silly little thing, hangin' on a string, Waitin' by the phone, prayin' it'll ring. A7 You know it ain't right. E7
'Cause you ain't never gonna do what he wants to,
Kneelin' by the bed, prayin' it's true. A7 You know it ain't right. E7
Bridge:
D7 You ain't gotta tellA7 me, he fell too E7fast. D7 But won't you just tellA7 him that it ain't gonna B7last?
Oh, no, it ain't gonna last. E7 A7 E7 E7 A7 E7
What does it A7mean if you know you don't mean it? E7 What does it A7say if you got nothing to say? B7
Chorus:
He's just your E7silly little thing, hangin' on a string, Waitin' by the phone, prayin' it'll ring. A7 You know it ain't right. E7
'Cause you ain't never gonna do what he wants to,
Kneelin' by the bed, prayin' it's true. A7 You know it ain't right. E7
You know it ain't right. Outro: C#7 C7 B7* A#7
